Abstract top

In the title compound, C16H11F4N3S, the dihedral angles between the thiadiazole ring and the difluorobenzyl rings are 81.95 (7) and 81.96 (7)°, whereas the dihedral angle between the difluorobenzyl rings is 11.41 (7)°. In the crystal structure, C-H...N and C-H...F interactions link the molecules into two-dimensional arrays parallel to the bc plane.

Comment top

Heterocycles bearing 1,3,4-thiadiazole moieties represent an interesting class of compounds possessing a wide spectrum of biological activity (Swamy et al., 2006) such as anti-inflammatory, anti-viral and anti-microbial properties (Amir & Shikha, 2004). Recently, 1,3,4-thiadiazoles have attracted particular attention due to their analgesic, ulcerogenic and lipidperoxidation activities (Holla et al., 2002). In particular, the derivatives of variously substituted 1,3,4-thiadiazoles are also known to exhibit anti-depressant and anxiolitic agents (Ibrahim, 2009). Herein, the crystal structure of the title compound (I) is reported.

In (I), Fig. 1, the bond lengths and angles are comparable to related structures (Wang et al., 2009a & b; Yin et al., 2008). The dihedral angles between the thiadiazole ring (C1—C2/S1/N1—N2) and the difluorobenzyl rings [(C4—C9) and (C11—C16)] are 81.95 (7)° and 81.86 (7)°, respectively whereas the dihedral angle between the difluorobenzyl rings is 11.41 (7)°. These data indicate that all the three rings are twisted from each other.

The crystal packing (Fig. 2) is consolidated by C—H···N and C—H···F interactions (Table 1) that link molecules into two-dimensional arrays parallel to the bc plane.

Experimental top

Anhydrous potassium carbonate (5.4 g, 0.0395 mol) was added to a solution of 1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-amine (2 g, 0.0197 mol) in dry acetonitrile (25 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred for 15 min. 2,6-Difluorobenzyl bromide (8.18 g, 0.0395 mol) was added drop-wise to the mixture. After addition, the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h, filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography using 60–120 silica gel. The fraction eluted with 10% ethyl acetate in hexane was concentrated to produce (I) as a pale-yellow crystalline solid. Yield 5.0 g, 71.63%. m.p. 421–423 K.

Refinement top

C-bound H atoms were positioned geometrically [C—H = 0.93 and 0.97 Å] and refined using a riding model with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

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.
