Abstract

The title compound, 3-methyl-4-phenyl-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole was synthesized by reaction of diphenylphosphazoanilide with N-acetyl-N′-(2-pyridoyl)hydrazine. Crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained from a mixed solution of water and ethanol in a one-to-one volume ratio. The crystal is orthorhombic, space group P212121 with crystallographic parameters: a = 19.414(4) Å, b = 17.172(3) Å, c = 7.4850(15) Å, β = 90.00°, μ = 0.079 mm−1, V = 2495.3(8) Å3, Z = 8, Dc = 1.258 g/cm3, F(000) = 992, T = 295(2) K. The X-ray results showed that in the crystal structure of the title compound, the 1,2,4-triazole, pyridine and benzene rings are not coplanar.

Index Abstract

The title compound was synthesized by reaction of diphenylphosphazoanilide with N-acetyl-N′-(2-pyridoyl)hydrazine, and the crystal structure shows that its three aromatic rings (1,2,4-triazole, pyridine and benzene rings) do not share a common plane.
