2-(Mesitylmethyl­sulfan­yl)pyridine N-oxide–18-crown-6 (2/1)

Abstract

In the title compound, 2C15H17NOS·C12H24O6, the asymmetric unit consists of one N-oxide derivative and one-half of the 18-crown-6 ether, which lies on an inversion centre. In the crown ether, the O—C—C—O torsion angles indicate a gauche conformation of the ethyl­eneoxy units, while the C—O—C—C torsion angles indicate planarity of these segments. In the N-oxide unit, the dihedral angle between the pyridine and benzene rings is 85.88 (12)°. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯π inter­actions
