In the title compound, C20H16N4O2, the benzene rings of the 2-hydroxyphenyl and 4-methoxylphenyl groups form dihedral angles of 64.02 (8) and 77.39 (7)°, respectively, with the mean plane of the triazole ring. The dihedral angle between the triazole ring mean plane and the pyridyl ring is 9.61 (8)°. In the crystal, intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into zigzag chains propagating in [010].

The title compound was synthesized according to a literature method (Zhang et al., 2004). Equivalent amounts of p-methoxylphenylphosphazoanilide and N-(2-pyridoyl)-N'-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)hydrazine were reacted in N,N'-dimethylaniline for 3 h at 463 K, with stirring. Colourless block-shaped crystals were obtained by slow evaporation of an acetone solution. The crystals were collected and dried in a vacuum desiccator using anhydrous CaCl2 (yield 52%).
The hydroxyl H-atom was located in a difference Fourier map and freely refined, O-H = 0.938 (18)Å, with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(O). The C-bound H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and treated as riding atoms: C—H = 0.93–0.96 Å, with Uiso(H) = 1.2 or 1.5 (methyl) Ueq(C).

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. |

Molecules containing a 1,2,4-triazole moiety have elicited considerable interest among medicinal chemists because they display a wide range of antifungal (Collin et al., 2003) and antibacterial (Papakonstantinou-Garoufalias et al., 2002) activities. We have synthesed and reported the crystal structures of various 1,2,4-triazole ligands and their metal complexes (Zhang et al., 2004; Zhang, Liu, Ma et al., 2005; Zhang, Liu, Yang et al., 2005; Zhu et al., 2000). As an extension of our work on the structural characterization of triazole derivatives, we report herein on the crystal structure of the title compound.
In the title compound the pyridyl ring and the benzene rings lie in a propeller arrangement around the central 1,2,4-triazole ring (Fig. 1), thereby minimizing the steric effects among these rings. The benzene rings of the 2-hydroxyphenyl and 4-methoxylphenyl groups are inclined to the mean plane of the triazole ring by 64.02 (8) and 77.39 (7)°, respectively. In contrast the pyridyl ring is inclined to the triazole ring by 9.61 (8)°.
In the crystal structure intermolecular O–H···N hydrogen bonds, involving hydroxyl O1-H1O and a triazole N-atom, N1, link the molecules into zigzag chains propagating in the [010] direction (Fig. 2 and Table 1).
