N-(Phenylsulfonyl)-L-asparagine

Abstract

In the title compound, C(10)H(12)N(2)O(5)S, one of the sulfonyl O atoms is hydrogen bonded to the amido N atom of an adjacent mol-ecule. There is also a weak hydrogen-bonding inter-action between the other sulfonyl O atom and the secondary amino N atom. In addition, the amido O atom is also hydrogen bonded to a carboxyl O atom. These hydrogen-bonding inter-actions give rise to a layer structure parallel to the bc plane.
