The title compound, C15H16N2O3S, was obtained by the reaction of (E)-1-(pyridin-4-yl)propan-1-one oxime and para-toluenesulfonic acid. The pyridine ring makes a dihedral angle of 54.70 (10)° with the benzene ring. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming a chain along the c-axis direction.
