N,N′-[1,3-Phenyl-enebis(methyl-ene)]di-p-toluenesulfonamide

In the title compound, C ₂₂H ₂₄N ₂O ₄S ₂, the dihedral angles between the central benzene ring and the pendant rings are 66.96 (13) and 69.37 (13)°. The torsion angles for the C-N-S-C fragments are-68.5 (3) and-72.6 (3)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds to generate infinite (001) sheets containing R ₄ ⁴(28) loops. A weak aromatic π-π stacking contact between one of the terminal benzene rings and its inversion-related partner is also observed [centroid-to-centroid separation = 3.796 (2) Å and slippage = 1.581 Å], as are two possible C-H⋯π contacts.
