The structure of the title compound, l-3-methoxy-2-(p-tolylsulfonyloxy
)diphenyldiazene, C23H22N2O4S, shows the characteristic features of az
obenzene derivatives. The rings in the azobenzene frame are twisted by
16.97(2) and 5.37(2)degrees out of the azo group plane. The larger tw
ist is associated with the 5-allyl-3-methoxy ring. The azobenzene moie
ty of the molecule has a trans configuration.
