In the title compound, C16H14ClN3O2, the 2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazole ring [maximum deviation = 0.030 (1) Å] and the pyridine ring [maximum deviation = 0.012 (1) Å] are inclined slightly to one another, making a dihedral angle of 11.91 (5)°. The chloro-substituted phenyl ring is almost perpendicular to the 2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazole and pyridine rings at dihedral angles of 86.86 (5) and 75.26 (5)°, respectively. In the crystal, π–π [centroid–centroid distance = 3.7311 (6) Å] and C—H⋯π interactions are observed.

Schiff base, N'-[(1E)-(4-chlorophenyl)methylene]-4- methylbenzohydrazide (0.5 g, 0.0018 mol) was refluxed with acetic anhydride (3 ml) for 1 h. After the completion of reaction, the excess acetic anhydride was distilled out at reduced pressure and the residue obtained was poured into ice cold water. The solid that was separated out was filtered, washed with water and dried. The crude product was recrystallized from hot ethanol in the form of yellow blocks (0.38 g, 76%). M.p.: 395–397 K.
All H atoms were positioned geometrically [C–H = 0.95 or 1.00 Å] and refined using a riding model with Uiso(H) = 1.2 or 1.5 Ueq(C). A rotating group model was applied to the methyl groups. The same Uij parameter was used for atoms pair N1/C3. Three outliers (-2 0 2, -2 0 1 and -2 1 1) were omitted in the final refinement.

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems 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. |

Oxadiazole, a five-membered heterocyclic nucleus, has attracted a wide attention of the chemists in search for the new therapeutic molecules. A number of therapeutic agents such as HIV-integrase inhibitor Raltegravir, a nitrofuran antibacterial Furamizole, antihypertensive agents like Tiodazosin and Nesapidil are based on the 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety. The 3-acetyl-2,5-disubstituted-2,3- dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazoline ring systems are associated with diverse biological properties such as analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, anti-HIV, antibacterial, antitubercular activities (Rakesh & Prabhakar, 2009; Priya et al., 2007; Bhatia & Gupta, 2011). Further, substituted pyridines have showed significant biological activities (Vijesh et al., 2011; Galil & Amr, 2000). Pyridine-derived pharmaceuticals include Atazanavir and Imatinib mesylate which are recommended for the treatment of HIV and chronic myelogenous leukemia respectively. Keeping in view of the therapeutic importance of 1,3,4-oxadiazoles and pyridines, we synthesized the title compound to study its crystal structure.
In the molecular structure (Fig. 1), the 2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazole ring [O1/N2/N3/C6/C7, with a maximum deviation of 0.030 (1) Å at atom C7] and the pyridine ring [N1/C1–C5, with a maximum deviation of 0.012 (1) Å at atom C3 and C5] are slightly inclined to one another, making a dihedral angle of 11.91 (5)°. Meanwhile, the chloro-substituted phenyl ring (C8–C13) is almost perpendicular to the 2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazole and pyridine rings at dihedral angles of 86.86 (5) and 75.26 (5)°, respectively. Bond lengths and angles are within normal ranges and are comparable to related structures (Yehye et al., 2010; Ono et al., 2009).
The crystal packing is shown in Fig. 2. π–π interactions are observed with centroid to centroid distance Cg1···Cg2 = 3.7311 (6) Å; symmetry code: 1 - x, 2 - y,1 - z. The crystal structure also features intermolecular C16—H16A···Cg3 (Table 1) interactions (Cg1, Cg2 and Cg3 are the centroids of O1/N2/N3/C6/C7, N1/C1–C5 and C8–C13 rings, respectively).
