In the title molecule, C12H10N6O, the dihedral angle between the two pyrazine rings [planar to within 0.009 (3) and 0.018 (3) Å] is 5.62 (15)°. They deviate from the central oxadiazole ring [planar to within 0.005 (3) Å] by 1.52 (16) and 5.55 (17)°, respectively. In the crystal, C—H⋯N interactions involving the pyrazine rings connect molecules to form zigzag supramolecular chains propagating in [010].

5-Methylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (0.3 mol) and hydrazine dihydrochloride (0.2 mol) were mixed with stirring, to which polyphosphoric acid (85%, 60 ml) was added. Then, anhydrous phosphorus pentoxide (0.6 mol) was carefully added to the above mixture. The viscous solution was heated at 393 K, with stirring for ca 6 h. After cooling to room temperature, the resultant viscous liquid was poured over distilled water with stirring, dissolved, and then neutralized with sodium hydrate (3 mol/L). A large amount of orange precipitation of title compound was obtained and dried in air. Its single-crystal can be recrystallized from its methanol solution (Yield: 63%). Anal. Calc. for C12H10N6O: C, 55.69; H, 3.96; N, 33.05%. Found: C, 55.62; H, 4.01; N, 33.09%. Spectroscopic data for the title compound is given in the archived CIF.
All H atoms were initially located in a difference Fourier map. The C—H atoms were then constrained to an ideal geometry, and refind as riding atoms: C—H = 0.93 (CHaromatic) and 0.96 Å (CH3), with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq (C).

Experimental. Spectroscopic data for the title compound: IR (KBr, cm-1): 3036m, 1515w, 1568w, 1461s, 1340w, 1272m, 1176m, 1092m, 1028?s, 915m, 835w, 769w, 728m, 522w. |
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. |

Currently derivatives of oxadiazole systems are of growing research interest, as they are precursors to functional N-heterocyclic compounds, as well as being used in pharmaceuticals as metabolically stable surrogates and photographically active systems (Schnurch et al., 2006; Crabtree, 2005; Venkatakrishnan, et al., 2000). Among them, oxadiazole compounds decorated by different groups on the 5-membered ring, such as pyridyl (Du, et al., 2009) and pyrazinyl rings, (Du, et al., 2005, 2006), also show interesting coordination behaviors. However, the related ligands involving methyl-pyrazinyl groups remain uninvestigated. They may display three typical configurations under different surroundings and multiple binding patterns (hexadentate at the most) during coordination. In this contribution, we present the crystal structure of the title compound, a bis(4-methylpyrazinyl) substituted oxadiazole. It was prepared by the reaction of 5-methylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid and hydrazine dihydrochloride in the presence of polyphosphoric acid and anhydrous phosphorus pentoxide.
In the molecule of the title compound, Fig.1, pyrazinyl ring A [(N1,C3,C2,N2,C13,C4); planar to within 0.009 (3) Å] is inclined to pyrazinyl ring B [(N5,C9,C10,N6,C11,C9); planar to within 0.018 (3) Å] by 5.62 (15) °. They deviate from the central oxadiazole ring (planar to within 0.005 (3) Å) by 1.52 (16)° and 5.55 (17)°, respectively.
In the crystal a C—H···N interaction, involving pyrazinyl rings A and B, connect molecules to form zigzag poylmer chains propagating in [010] (Table 1 and Fig. 2).
