5-(2-Methylphenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine

Y. Wang, X.-J. Kong, R. Wan, F. Han and P. Wang

Abstract top

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C9H9N3S, contains two crystallographically independent molecules, in which the thiadiazole and tolyl rings are oriented at dihedral angles of 32.25 (3) and 74.50 (3)°. An intramolecular C-H...S interaction results in the formation of a five-membered ring. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N-H...N hydrogen bonds link the molecules into chains along the a axis. A [pi]-[pi] contact between the thiadiazole rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.910 (3) Å] may further stabilize the structure. There is also a weak C-H...[pi] interaction.

Comment top

1,3,4-Thiadiazole derivatives represent an interesting class of compounds possessing broad spectrum biological activities (Nakagawa et al., 1996; Wang et al., 1999). These compounds are known to exhibit diverse biological effects, such as insecticidal and fungicidal activities (Wang et al., 1999). We are focused our synthetic and structural studies on 1,3,4 -thiadiazole derivatives and we have published the structure of 5-m -tolyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-ylamine (Han et al., 2007). We report herein the crystal structure of the title compound.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound contains two crystallographically independent molecules (Fig. 1), in which the bond lengths (Allen et al., 1987) and angles are generally within normal ranges. Rings A (C2A-C7A), B (S1A/N1A/N2A/C8A/C9A) and C (C2B-C7B), D (S1B/N1B/N2B/C8B/C9B) are, of course, planar, and they are oriented at dihedral angles of A/B = 32.25 (3) and C/D = 74.50 (3) °. The intramolecular C-H···S interaction (Table 1) results in the formation of a five-membered ring E (S1A/C6A-C8A/H6A) adopting envelope conformation with S1A atom displaced by 0.813 (3) Å from the plane of the other ring atoms.

In the crystal structure, intra- and intermolecular N-H···N hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link the molecules into chains along the a axis (Fig. 2), in which they may be effective in the stabilization of the structure. The π-π contact between the thiadiazole rings, Cg1—Cg2i [symmetry code: (i) x, 1 + y, -1 + z, where Cg1 and Cg2 are centroids of the rings B (S1A/N1A/N2A/C8A/C9A) and D (S1B/N1B/N2B/C8B/C9B), respectively] may further stabilize the structure, with centroid-centroid distance of 3.910 (3) Å. There also exists a weak C—H···π interaction (Table 1).

Experimental top

For the preparation of the title compound, 3-methyl-benzoic acid (5 mmol) and thiosemicarbazide (5 mmol) were added in toluene (50 ml), and kept in the oil bath at 363 K for 6 h. After cooling, the crude product precipitated and was filted. Crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of an acetone solution.

Refinement top

H atoms were positioned geometrically, with N-H = 0.86 Å (for NH2) and C-H = 0.93 and 0.96 Å for aromatic and methyl H, respectively, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = xUeq(C,N), where x = 1.5 for methyl H and x = 1.2 for all other H atoms.

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.
