In the title compound, C11H9ClN4OS2, the thiadiazole and chlorophenyl rings are oriented at an angle of 43.1 (1)°. The sum of the bond angles around the amide N atom (359.8°) of the acetohydrazide group is in accordance with a model of sp2 In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate R22(8) loops. Weak C—H⋯π interactions also occur.

To a solution of 2-mercaptothiadiazole (50 g; 423 mmol) in acetone (500 ml) anhydrous sodium carbonate (24.66 g; 233 mmol) was added. Ethyl bromoacetate (70.65 g; 423 mmol) was added slowly to the reaction mixture at room temperature under stirring. The progress of the reaction was monitored by thin layer
using ethyl acetate/n-hexane (3:7) as The bye-product sodium bromide was removed by filtration. The mother liquor was concentrated under vacuum to remove acetone and the residual acetone was removed by strip off with methanol to yield ethyl (1,3,4- thiadiazol-2-ylthio)acetate. The residue was dissolved in methanol (300 ml) and the clear solution hydrazine hydrate (42.35 g; 846 mmol) was added and heated under reflux. The progress of the reaction was monitored by thin layer using chloroform/methanol (9:1) as The reaction mass was cooled to 0–5° C. The crystallized product, 2-(1,3,4- thiadiazol-2-ylthio)acetohydrazide was filtered and washed with chilled methanol. To a mixture of isolated product (10 mmol) and 2-chlorobenzaldehyde (10 mmol) in ethanol (20 ml), a few drops of acetic acid was added. The reaction mixture was heated under reflux till completion of reaction. The reaction was monitored by thin layer using chloroform /methanol (8:2). The reaction mass was cooled to room temperature. The crystallized product, 2-[1,3,4-Thiadiazol-2-ylthio]-N'-[(1E) -(2-chlorophenyl)methylene]acetohydrazide was filtered and washed with ethanol.The N bound H atom was refined and the C bound H atoms positioned geometrically (C—H=0.93–0.97 Å) and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with 1.2 Ueq(C) for all H atoms.
1,3,4-Thiadiazole derivatives are of interest because of their chemical and pharmaceutical properties. Some derivatives are useful in the preparation of intermediate for anticarcinogens. Recently many 1,3,4- thiadiazole nucleus have been synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative effect in vitro against the cells of various human tumor cell lines (Matysiak & Opolski, 2006). Some of the derivatives have effective antibacterial (Alireza et al., 2005) and insecticidal activities (Wang et al., 1999). In view of these facts and to ascertain the
crystallographic study of the title compound has been carried out.The ORTEP plot of the molecule is shown in Fig.1. The thiadiazole and the chlorophenyl rings are planar and oriented at an angle of 43.1 (1)° with each other. The sum of the bond angles around the N7 atom (359.8°) of the acetohydrazide group in the molecule is in accordance with sp2 π, π···π types of intra and intermolecular interactions. Atom N7 of the molecule at (x, y, z) donates a proton to atom O1 of the molecule at (2 - x, 1 - y, 1 - z) forming an intermolecular N—H···O bond which link the molecules into R22(8) dimer (Bernstein et al., 1995) as shown in Fig 2. The acetohydrazide group interacts with the thiadiazole ring moiety through a C—H···π interaction involving atom C5, the separation between H5A and the centroid of the S1/C1/N2/N3/C4 (Cg1) ring being 2.95 Å.
The packing of the molecules are controlled by N—H···O, C—H···Cl, C—H···For related literature on the biological activities of 1,3,4-thiazole derivatives, see: Alireza et al. (2005); Matysiak & Opolski (2006); Wang et al. (1999). For hydrogen-bond motifs, see: Bernstein et al. (1995).

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. |

1,3,4-Thiadiazole derivatives are of interest because of their chemical and pharmaceutical properties. Some derivatives are useful in the preparation of intermediate for anticarcinogens. Recently many 1,3,4- thiadiazole nucleus have been synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative effect in vitro against the cells of various human tumor cell lines (Matysiak & Opolski, 2006). Some of the derivatives have effective antibacterial (Alireza et al., 2005) and insecticidal activities (Wang et al., 1999). In view of these facts and to ascertain the molecular conformation, crystallographic study of the title compound has been carried out.
The ORTEP plot of the molecule is shown in Fig.1. The thiadiazole and the chlorophenyl rings are planar and oriented at an angle of 43.1 (1)° with each other. The sum of the bond angles around the N7 atom (359.8°) of the acetohydrazide group in the molecule is in accordance with sp2 hybridization. The packing of the molecules are controlled by N—H···O, C—H···Cl, C—H···π, π···π types of intra and intermolecular interactions. Atom N7 of the molecule at (x, y, z) donates a proton to atom O1 of the molecule at (2 - x, 1 - y, 1 - z) forming an intermolecular N—H···O bond which link the molecules into R22(8) dimer (Bernstein et al., 1995) as shown in Fig 2. The acetohydrazide group interacts with the thiadiazole ring moiety through a C—H···π interaction involving atom C5, the separation between H5A and the centroid of the S1/C1/N2/N3/C4 (Cg1) ring being 2.95 Å.
