(Received 23 May 2014; accepted 28 May 2014; online 7 June 2014)

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C8H9N5O2, contains two independent mol­ecules (A and B) in which the dihedral angles between the triazole and pyrazole rings are 4.80 (14) and 8.45 (16)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds into supra­molecular independent A and B chains propagating along the b-axis direction. The crystal structure also features ππ stacking between the aromatic rings of adjacent chains, the centroid–centroid separations being 3.8001 (15), 3.8078 (17), 3.8190 (14) and 3.8421 (15) Å.

Comment top

1,2,3-Triazole and its derivatives had attracted considerable attention for the past few decades due to their chemotherapeutical value. Many 1,2,3-triazoles are found to be potent antimicrobial and antiviral agents. Some of them have exhibited antiproliferative and anticancer activities (Danoun et al., 1998). Some 1,2,3-triazoles are used as DNA cleaving agents (Manfredini et al., 2000) and potassium channel activators. Prompted by the chemotherapeutic importance of 1,2,3-triazoles and its derivatives, we have synthesized the title compound and report its crystal structure herein.

The title compound, contains two crystallographically independent molecules and bond lengths and angles are in the normal range(Fig. 1). The dihedral angle between the triazole and pyrazole rings is 4.80 (14)° and 8.45 (16)° respectively. The crystal structure is stabilized by N–H···N hydrogen bonds linking molecules into one-dimensional chains running parallel to the b axis (Fig. 2). The structure is further stabilized by π···π stacking interactions, with centroid-to-centroid separations of 3.8001 (15)–3.8421 (15) Å.

Experimental top

3-Azido-1H-pyrazole (20 mmol) was treated with ethyl acetoacetate (24 mmol) in methanol (75 ml) and the mixture was cooled to 273 K. Sodium methoxide (24 mmol) was added to the above mixture and stirred at ambient temperature for 24 h. After completion of the reaction, the mixture was poured on to ice cold water. The precipitated solid was filtered, washed with water and recrystallized from methanol, then 5-methyl-1-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4- carboxylic acid were obtained. A mixture of 5-methyl-1-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4- carboxylic acid (0.1 mmol) and Et3N(0.2 mmol) in methanol (15 ml) was stirred at room temperature until the starting material disappeared. The resulting mixture was filtered and let the filtrate still for 24 h, colorless needle-like crystals were obtained.

Refinement top

H-atoms were placed in calculated positions and refined constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93—0.96 Å and N—H = 0.86 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms and 1.2Ueq(C,N) for the others.

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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.
