description

In the title compound, 2C(15)H(17)NOS·C(12)H(24)O(6), 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 ethyl-eneoxy 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 inter-actions.
