Compound (I) was prepared according to the procedure of Yan et al. (2009). A mixture of 1-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl) ethanone (3.07 g, 13.8 mmol) and 4-fluorobenzaldehyde (1.89 g, 15.3 mmol) in toluene (30 mL) using glacial acetic acid (0.08 mL, 1.4 mmol) as catalyst was refluxed. After the reaction was complete (monitored by TLC, petroleum ether/ethyl acetate, 10/1, V/V), the solvent was removed. The residue was dissolved in dichloromethane (30 mL) and washed with water (3x30 mL). The resulting phase was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, concentrated under reduced pressure and then purified by silica gel
eluting with petroleum ether/ethyl acetate (10/1-2/1, V/V) to give the title compound (I) (2.578 g) as solid. Crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were grown from a mixed solution of (I) in ethyl acetate and petroleum ether by slow evaporation at room temperature.H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.93 Å. The Uiso(H) value was set equal to 1.2Ueq(C).
Triazole compounds exhibit broad bioactive spectrum and the developments of new triazole derivatives as potential bioactive agents have become an active topic in medicinal chemistry (Wang & Zhou, 2011; Zhou & Wang, 2012).
have been paid increasingly special attention for their diverse biological activities such as antimicrobial, anticancer, antiviral and anti-inflammatory ones and so on (Jin et al., 2010). Our interest is to develop novel triazole-derived chalcone compounds as medicinal agents. We have already synthesized and reported related structures of triazolylchalcones (Wang et al., 2009; Yan et al., 2009). Herein, we report the of the title compound (I).The molecular structure of (I) is shown in Fig. 1. The C═C bond connecting the triazole ring and 4-fluorophenyl groups adopts a Z geometry. The atoms in the region of the C═C bond have an essentially planar arrangement i.e. the r.m.s. deviation the atoms C7/C8/C11/C12/N1 is 0.0480 Å. The torsion angles of C12–C11═C8–C7 and C12–C11═C8–N1 are -169.35 (16)° and 7.1 (3)°. The triazole ring forms dihedral angles of 15.3 (1)° and 63.5 (1)°, with the 2,4-difluoro substituted (C1-C6) and 4-fluoro substituted (C12-C17) benzene rings, respectively. The dihedral angles between the two benzene rings is 51.8 (1)°.

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. |

Triazole compounds exhibit broad bioactive spectrum and the developments of new triazole derivatives as potential bioactive agents have become an active topic in medicinal chemistry (Wang & Zhou, 2011; Zhou & Wang, 2012). Chalcones have been paid increasingly special attention for their diverse biological activities such as antimicrobial, anticancer, antiviral and anti-inflammatory ones and so on (Jin et al., 2010). Our interest is to develop novel triazole-derived chalcone compounds as medicinal agents. We have already synthesized and reported related structures of triazolylchalcones (Wang et al., 2009; Yan et al., 2009). Herein, we report the crystal structure of the title compound (I).
The molecular structure of (I) is shown in Fig. 1. The C═C bond connecting the triazole ring and 4-fluorophenyl groups adopts a Z geometry. The atoms in the region of the C═C bond have an essentially planar arrangement i.e. the r.m.s. deviation the atoms C7/C8/C11/C12/N1 is 0.0480 Å. The torsion angles of C12–C11═C8–C7 and C12–C11═C8–N1 are -169.35 (16)° and 7.1 (3)°. The triazole ring forms dihedral angles of 15.3 (1)° and 63.5 (1)°, with the 2,4-difluoro substituted (C1-C6) and 4-fluoro substituted (C12-C17) benzene rings, respectively. The dihedral angles between the two benzene rings is 51.8 (1)°.
