In the title compound, C20H18N2O3S, the dihedral angle between the central benzene ring and the amide group is 24.1 (3) and that between this ring and the aromatic ring of the tolyl group is 68.2 (16). In the crystal, adjacent molecules are linked by N—HO hydrogen bonds into a linear chain running along [100]. Weak C—HO contacts also occur. Extensive weak – interactions exist from both face-to-face and face-to-edge interactions occur between the aromatic rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.612 (2) and 4.843 (2) A˚ ].
