trans-4-terf-butylcyclohexyl 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfenate

Abstract

The low-temperature structure of trans-4-tert-butylcyclohexyl 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfenate, C16H22N2O5S, is reported. The C - O bond distance is 1.473 (2) Å. A close contact exists between a 2-nitro O atom and the sulfenate S atom which is evidence for a significant interaction between these two; the pattern of bond distances in the aromatic ring and the nitro groups is consistent with this.
