Abstract
The crystal structure of sulindac, C20H17FO3S, one of the nonsteroid antiinflammatory agents, has been determined by the X-ray diffraction techniques using diffractometer data obtained by the ω-2θ scan technique with Cu Kα radiation from a crystal with space group symmetry Pbca and unit cell parameters a = 8.166(1), b = 18.291(8), c = 23.245(10) Å. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least-squares to a final R = 0.11 for the 1153 observed reflections. The carboxyl group is nearly perpendicular to the indenyl ring as observed in indomethacin. The dihedral angle between the indenyl and phenyl rings is 35°while the corresponding angle in indomethacin is 67°. Crystal packing consists of a hydrogen bond and partial ring stacking between the indenyl rings.
