4-[4-(Diethylamino)benzylideneamino]-4H-1,2,4-triazole

J. X. Pan, J. Z. Zhang and Q. W. Chen

Abstract top

The title compound, C13H17N5, is a Schiff base synthesized by the reaction of 4-amino-4H-1,2,4-triazole and 4-(diethylamino)benzaldehyde. The triazole ring forms a dihedral angle of 5.77 (16)° with the benzene ring. The crystal structure is stabilized by an intermolecular C-H...N hydrogen bond.

Comment top

Recent interest in substituted 1,2,4-triazoles has arisen in part from their transition metal complexes with intriguing structures and specific magnetic properties (Garcia et al., 1997; Kahn & Martinez, 1998; Moliner et al., 2001; Fujigaya et al., 2003). In addition, many compounds containing a 1,2,4-triazole unit display a broad range of biological and pharmacological activities, finding application as anti-inflammatory (Tozkoparan et al., 2000), antitumour (Demirbs & Ugurluoglu Demirbas, 2002), analgesic (Turan-Zitouni et al., 1999), antibacterial and antiviral agents (Cornelissen et al., 1992). In a continuation of our interest in the chemical and pharmacological properties of triazole derivatives, we have synthesized the title compound and report here its crystal structure.

The molecular structure and the atom-numbering scheme of the title compound are shown in Fig. 1. In the molecule, all bond lengths and angles are within normal ranges and comparable with the reported values (Atalay et al., 2003; Zhu et al., 2000). In the triazole ring, the N2?C1 and N1?C2 bonds display double-bond character, with bond distances of 1.288 (6) and 1.313 (6) Å, respectively. The 1,2,4-triazole ring is strictly planar (maximum displacement 0.006 (5) Å for C2) and forms a dihedral angle of 5.77 (16) °. The crystal packing is stabilized by an intermolecular C—H···N hydrogen bonding interaction (Table 1).

Experimental top

A mixture of 4-amino-l,2,4-triazole (0.88 g, 10 mmol) and 4-(diethylamino)benzaldehyde (1.77 g, 10 mmol), which was prepared by standard procedures (Brasselet et al., 1999), was dissolved in ethanol (180 ml) and stirred for 1 h. Single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of the ethanol solution.

Refinement top

The H atoms were positioned geometrically, with C—H = 0.93, 0.97 and 0.96 Å for aromatic, methylene and methyl H atoms, respectively, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), where x = 1.5 for methyl H, and x = 1.2 for all other H atoms. In the absence of significant anomalous scattering effects, Friedel pairs were merged.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
