title: Soft C-H.O hydrogen bonds in methyl 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfenate: sheets built from R22(10) and R66(42) rings.
abstract: Molecules of the title compound, C(7)H(6)N(2)O(5)S, are linked into sheets containing R(2)(2)(10) and R(6)(6)(42) rings by C-H.O hydrogen bonds [C.O 3.405 (3) and 3.511 (2) A; C-H.O 159 and 169 degrees ], in which both acceptors are in the same nitro group. Comparisons are made with the hydrogen bonding in other nitrobenzenesulfenate esters.
