Description
Summary:In the structure of the title compound, K+·C7H7BrNO2S−·1.5H2O, the K+ ion is heptacoordinated by three O atoms from water molecules and by four sulfonyl O atoms of N-bromo-2-methylbenzenesulfonamide anions. The S—N distance of 1.577 (5) Å is consistent with an S=N double bond. The crystal structure comprises sheets in the ac plane which are further stabilized by O—H...Br and O—H...N hydrogen bonds.
