A second monoclinic polymorph of S‐­(4‐tolyl) 4‐toluenethiosulfonate at 150 and 293 K

The title compound, C₁₄H₁₄O₂S₂, contains discrete mol­ecules and is a polymorph of a structure reported previously by Caputo, Palumbo, Nardelli & Pelizzi [Gazz. Chim. Ital. (1984), 114 , 421–430]. The present structure contains no intermolecular C—H?O hydrogen bonds, whereas in the previous polymorph, the mol­ecules are linked into continuous chains by such interactions.
