Abstract

1-Acetyl-3,6-diphenyl-1,4-dihydro-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (1) was prepared and its structure was determined by X-ray diffraction. Crystallization of 1 occurs in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a =15.180(5) Å, b = 9.216(4) Å, c =10.129(7) Å; β = 101.99(5)°; and Z =4. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to an R value of 0.0414. The central six-membered ring of the compound of 1 has a boat conformation and is not homoaromatic.
