4-[(4-Fluorobenzylidene)amino]-3-[1-(4-isobutylphenyl)ethyl]-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5(4H)-thione

Abstract top

In the title compound, C21H23FN4S, the benzene rings of the isobutylphenyl and fluorobenzene units form dihedral angles of 75.89 (7) and 13.26 (7)°, respectively, with the triazole ring. An intramolecular C-H...S hydrogen-bonding contact generates an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal packing, pairs of N-H...S hydrogen bonds link neighbouring molecules into inversion dimers, forming R22(8) ring motifs. The crystal structure is further stabilized by C-H...[pi] interactions.

Comment top

1,2,4-Triazoles and their derivatives represent a rapidly developing field in modern heterocyclic chemistry. Similarly, ibuprofen belongs to the class of Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) with diverse pharmacological activities. The analgesic, anti-asthematic, diuretic, anti-hypertensive and anti-inflammatory properties associated with these drugs have made them important chemotherapeutic agents (Göknur et al., 2005). Our earlier studies involved the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds incorporating ibuprofen and 1,2,4-triazole fragments in the structures (Fun et al., 2008, 2009a). Schiff base derivatives of 1,2,4-triazole are known to possess anti-tumor activity (Demirbas et al., 2004). Similarly, some Schiff base derivatives of acetic acid hydrazides containing 1,2,4-triazol-5-one ring have displayed anti-tumoral activity only against breast cancer, while 2-phenyl ethylidenamino and 2-phenyl ethylamino derivatives of 4-amino-1,2,4-triazol-5-ones have been found to be effective towards non-small cell lung cancer, cranial neural crest cancer, and breast cancer (Demirbas et al., 2002). In this connection and in continuation of our interest in the synthesis of chemically and biologically important heterocycles, we now report a substituted 1,2,4-triazole Schiff base carrying the ibuprofen moiety, (I).

In (I), Fig. 1, the triazole ring (C8/C9/N2–N4) is approximately planar with a maximum deviation of 0.009 (1)° at atom N2. The dihedral angles formed by the triazole ring with C1–C6 and C11–C16 benzene rings are 13.26 (7) and 75.89 (7)°, respectively. Bond lengths and angles are comparable to a closely related structure (Fun et. al., 2009b). An intramolecular C7—H7A···S1 hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring motif (Bernstein et al., 1995), Fig. 1.

In the crystal packing (Fig. 2), pairs of N3—H1N3···S1 hydrogen bonds link molecules into dimers forming R22(8) ring motifs; these stack along the a axis. The crystal structure is further stabilized by C—H···π interactions (Table 1).

Experimental top

Compound (I) was obtained by refluxing 4-amino-5-[1-(4-isobutylphenyl)ethyl]-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (0.01 mol) and 4-fluorobenzaldehyde (0.01 mol) in ethanol (50 ml) with 3 drops of concentrated sulfuric acid for 6 h. The solid product obtained was collected by filtration, washed with ethanol and dried. Crystals were obtained from the slow evaporation of an ethanol solution of (I).

Refinement top

All H atoms were located from difference Fourier maps and allowed to refine freely [N—H = 0.85 (2) Å; range of C—H = 0.91 (2) - 1.07 (2) Å].

Special details top

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cyrosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K.

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.
