title: Crystal structure of 1-benzyl-sulfonyl-1,2,3,4-tetra-hydro-quinoline.
abstract: In the title compound, C16H17NO2S, the heterocyclic ring adopts a half-chair conformation and the bond-angle sum at the N atom is 354.6°. The dihedral angle between the planes of the aromatic rings is 74.15 (10)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating C(8) and C(4) chains propagating along [100] and [010], respectively, which together generate (001) sheets.
