A new polymorph of 2-(benzotriazol-2-yl)acetic acid, C8H7N3O2, crystallizes in the C2/c (Z = 8). The non-planar molecule has a synplanar conformation of the carboxy group. The features helices parallel to the b axis sustained by O—H⋯N hydrogen bonding which are similar to those in the known polymorph [Giordano & Zagari (1978). J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. 2, pp. 312–315]. However, in the title structure, columns are formed by π–π stacking interactions between benzotriazole fragments of centrosymmetrically related adjacent molecules [centroid-centroid distances = 3.593 (10) and 3.381 (10) Å] whereas π–π stacking interactions are not observed in the other polymorph. In the crystal of the title compound, C—H⋯O interactions are also observed.

Solid benzotriazol-2-yl-acetic acid was dissolved in dimethylformamide, filtered and left for crystallization by slow evaporation of the solvent at 30°C temperature. Colourless block crystals were obtained after two weeks.
H atoms were positioned geometrically, with O—H = 0.82 Å (for OH) and C—H = 0.93 and 0.97 Å for aromatic and methylene H, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).
Benzotriazol derivatives exhibit a good degree of analgesic, diuretic, anti-inflammatory, antiviral and antihypertensive activities (Kopanska et al., 2004; Yu et al., 2003; Hirokawa et al., 1998).
In the known polymorphic form (polymorph I) of the title compound reported by Giordano et al.(1978) [J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. 2, 312–315] the molecules are linked in helices parallel to b axis by a strong O—H···N hydrogen bond [D···A =2.6995 Å; angle D—H···A =168.08°]. We have now obtained a new polymorph of benzotriazol-2-yl-acetic acid (II), which crystallizes in the π-π stacking interactions between benzotriazol fragments of centrosymmetrically related adjacent molecules [centroid-centroid (1.5 - x, 0.5 - y,-z) distance = 3.593 (10) Å, C6···C6 (1.5 - x, 0.5 - y, -z) distance is 3.381 (10) Å] and [C6···C2 (1 - x, 1 - y, -z) distance is 3.361 (10) Å]. In the known polymorph I stacking interactions are not observed. The of the title compound is further stabilized via C—H···O interactions [C2···O2 = 3.365 (3) Å; angle C2—H2···O2 = 148°, C7···O1 = 3.387 (3) Å; angle C7—H7A···O1 = 154°, C7···O2 = 3.268 (3) Å; angle C7—H7B···O2 = 150°] (Fig. 2).

Carboxyl group is twisted away from the plane of the 1,2,3-benzotriazol fragment (C1/C2/C3/C4/C5/C6/N1/N2/N3) by 88.41 (15)°. There are helices parallel to b axis forming by intermolecular O—H···N hydrogen bonds [D···A =2.7273 (17) Å; D—H···A =171°] as in polymorph I (Table 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. |

Benzotriazol derivatives exhibit a good degree of analgesic, diuretic, anti-inflammatory, antiviral and antihypertensive activities (Kopanska et al., 2004; Yu et al., 2003; Hirokawa et al., 1998).
In the known polymorphic form (polymorph I) of the title compound reported by Giordano et al.(1978) [J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. 2, 312–315] the molecules are linked in helices parallel to b axis by a strong O—H···N hydrogen bond [D···A =2.6995 Å; angle D—H···A =168.08°]. We have now obtained a new polymorph of benzotriazol-2-yl-acetic acid (II), which crystallizes in the space group C2/c and its crystal structure is reported here. The asymmetric unit comprises a non-planar independent molecule with a synplanar conformation of the carboxyl group (Fig. 1). Carboxyl group is twisted away from the plane of the 1,2,3-benzotriazol fragment (C1/C2/C3/C4/C5/C6/N1/N2/N3) by 88.41 (15)°. There are helices parallel to b axis forming by intermolecular O—H···N hydrogen bonds [D···A =2.7273 (17) Å; D—H···A =171°] as in polymorph I (Table 1). Columns form by π-π stacking interactions between benzotriazol fragments of centrosymmetrically related adjacent molecules [centroid-centroid (1.5 - x, 0.5 - y,-z) distance = 3.593 (10) Å, C6···C6 (1.5 - x, 0.5 - y, -z) distance is 3.381 (10) Å] and [C6···C2 (1 - x, 1 - y, -z) distance is 3.361 (10) Å]. In the known polymorph I stacking interactions are not observed. The crystal structure of the title compound is further stabilized via C—H···O interactions [C2···O2 = 3.365 (3) Å; angle C2—H2···O2 = 148°, C7···O1 = 3.387 (3) Å; angle C7—H7A···O1 = 154°, C7···O2 = 3.268 (3) Å; angle C7—H7B···O2 = 150°] (Fig. 2).
