title: 2,6-Bis(tosyl-oxymeth-yl)pyridine.
abstract: The title compound, C(21)H(21)NO(6)S(2), is organized around a twofold axis parallel to the crystallographic c axis and containing the N atom and a C atom of the pyridine ring. The tosyl moiety and the pyridine ring are both essentially planar [maximum deviations 0.028 (2) and 0.020 (3) Å, respectively]; their mean planes form a dihedral angle of 33.0 (2)°.
