title: (S)-(-)-Methyl 2-(p-tolyl-sulfon-yloxy)-propanoate.
abstract: In the title compound, C(11)H(14)O(5)S, there is an intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond, for which the C-C-S-O torsion angle involving the acceptor and donor atoms is 2.4 (4)°. The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the methoxy-carbonyl plane is 52.7 (4)°. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked via inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a mol-ecular chain along the b axis.
