The title compounds, C19H15BrN4, C20H16BrN4 and C20H15BrN4, are nitro­gen-rich organic compounds that are related by their synthesis. The verdazyl radical, in which stacking leads to anti­ferromagnetic inter­actions, was reported previously [Iwase et al. (2013[Iwase, K., Yamaguchi, H., Ono, T., Hosokoshi, Y., Shimokawa, T., Kono, Y., Kittaka, S., Sakakibara, T., Matsuo, A. & Kindo, K. (2013). Phys. Rev. B, 88, 184431.]). Phys. Rev. B, 88, 184431]. For this compound, improved structural data and spectroscopic data are presented. The other two compounds have been crystallized for the first time and form stacks of dimers, roughly along the a-axis direction of the crystal. The formazan mol­ecule shows signs of rapid intra­molecular H-atom exchange typical for this class of compounds and spectroscopic data are provided in addition to the crystal structure. The triazole compound appears to be a side-product of the verdazyl synthesis.

1. Chemical context

Verdazyl radicals are a family of organic radicals first reported by Kuhn & Trischmann (1963[Kuhn, R. & Trischmann, H. (1963). Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 2, 155.]) who emphasized their intense green color and their stability. These Kuhn-verdazyls require formazan precursors, which are intensely red in color and inter­esting in their own respect (Nineham, 1955[Nineham, A. W. (1955). Chem. Rev. 55, 355-483.]; Scudiero et al. 1988[Scudiero, D. A., Shoemaker, R. H., Paull, K. D., Monks, A., Tierney, S., Nofziger, T. H., Currens, M. J., Seniff, D. & Boyd, M. R. (1988). Cancer Res. 48, 4827-4833.]). A few years after Kuhn's discovery, syntheses leading to the orange 6-oxo- and 6-thioxoverdazyls were developed (Neugebauer & Fischer, 1980[Neugebauer, F. A. & Fischer, H. (1980). Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 19, 724-725.]; Neugebauer et al., 1988[Neugebauer, F. A., Fischer, H. & Siegel, R. (1988). Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. 121, 815-822.]). As of late, verdazyls experience renewed inter­est, partially as a result of the improvements concerning their syntheses, enabling the introduction of a large variety of substitution patterns (Paré et al., 2005[Paré, E. C., Brook, D. J. R., Brieger, A., Badik, M. & Schinke, M. (2005). Org. Biomol. Chem. 3, 4258-4261.]; Bancerz et al., 2012[Bancerz, M., Youn, B., DaCosta, M. V. & Georges, M. K. (2012). J. Org. Chem. 77, 2415-2421.]; Matuschek et al., 2015[Matuschek, D., Eusterwiemann, S., Stegemann, L., Doerenkamp, C., Wibbeling, B., Daniliuc, C. G., Doltsinis, N. L., Strassert, C. A., Eckert, H. & Studer, A. (2015). Chem. Sci. 6, 4712-4716.]; Le et al., 2017[Le, T.-N., Trevisan, T., Lieu, E. & Brook, D. J. R. (2017). Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2017, 1125-1131.]). Such tailor-made radicals have possible applications as fundamental building blocks in mol­ecular magnets or in spintronic materials (Koivisto & Hicks, 2005[Koivisto, B. D. & Hicks, R. G. (2005). Coord. Chem. Rev. 249, 2612-2630.]; Train et al., 2009[Train, C., Norel, L. & Baumgarten, M. (2009). Coord. Chem. Rev. 253, 2342-2351.]; Ratera & Veciana, 2012[Ratera, I. & Veciana, J. (2012). Chem. Soc. Rev. 41, 303-349.]). Verdazyls often avoid stacking, preventing the occurrence of strong magnetic inter­actions. However, some exceptions to this rule have been reported, where strong anti­ferromagnetic coupling occurs as a consequence (Koivisto et al., 2006[Koivisto, B. D., Ichimura, A. S., McDonald, R., Lemaire, M. T., Thompson, L. K. & Hicks, R. G. (2006). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 128, 690-691.]; Eusterwiemann et al., 2017[Eusterwiemann, S., Dresselhaus, T., Doerenkamp, C., Janka, O., Niehaus, O., Massolle, A., Daniliuc, C. G., Eckert, H., Pöttgen, R., Neugebauer, J. & Studer, A. (2017). Chem. Eur. J. 23, 6069-6082.]). With respect to applications in spintronics, tetra­thia­fulvalene-substituted verdazyl compounds represent inter­esting examples (Chahma et al., 2006[Chahma, M., Wang, X. S., Est, A. van der & Pilkington, M. (2006). J. Org. Chem. 71, 2750-2755.]; Venneri et al., 2015[Venneri, S., Wilson, J., Rawson, J. M. & Pilkington, M. (2015). ChemPlusChem 80, 1624-1633.]). Herein, the preparation and crystal structures of three mol­ecules involved in verdazyl synthesis are reported. 3-(4-Bromo­phen­yl)-1,5-di­phenyl­formazan, C19H15N4Br (1), was used as the educt to obtain the 3-(4-bromo­phen­yl)-1,5-di­phenyl­verdazyl radical C20H16N4Br (2). Additionally, 5-anilino-3-(4-bromo­phen­yl)-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole, C20H15N4Br (3), could be crystallized, representing a possible side-product in verdazyl synthesis. The identification of such by-products might aid future efforts to further elucidate the so-far poorly understood mechanism of verdazyl formation. The crystal structures of all three mol­ecules could be obtained and are discussed in detail for 1 and 3. The structure of 2 has already been discussed by Iwase et al. (2013[Iwase, K., Yamaguchi, H., Ono, T., Hosokoshi, Y., Shimokawa, T., Kono, Y., Kittaka, S., Sakakibara, T., Matsuo, A. & Kindo, K. (2013). Phys. Rev. B, 88, 184431.]) and a dataset with improved residuals is provided herein. In addition to the crystal structures, spectroscopic data for 1 and 2 are presented.

[Scheme 1]

2. Structural commentary

The mol­ecular structures of 1 and 3 are shown in Fig. 1[link]a and b, respectively. Compound 2 has a structure typical for verdazyls, for details see Iwase et al. (2013[Iwase, K., Yamaguchi, H., Ono, T., Hosokoshi, Y., Shimokawa, T., Kono, Y., Kittaka, S., Sakakibara, T., Matsuo, A. & Kindo, K. (2013). Phys. Rev. B, 88, 184431.]). For 1, inter­esting structural features are the bond lengths in the central NNCNN atomic chain. Taking into account the 3σ criterion, the bond lengths N1—N2 and N3—N4 are identical [1.309 (5) and 1.300 (5) Å, respectively] and the same is true for N1—C7 and N3—C7 [1.350 (5) and 1.364 (5) Å, respectively]. These bond lengths lie between values typical for single and double bonds. The pairwisely identical bond lengths are in agreement with rapid intra­molecular H-atom exchange (Nineham, 1955[Nineham, A. W. (1955). Chem. Rev. 55, 355-483.]; Otting & Neugebauer, 1969[Otting, W. & Neugebauer, F. A. (1969). Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. 102, 2520-2529.]; Buemi et al., 1998[Buemi, G., Zuccarello, F., Venuvanalingam, P., Ramalingam, M. & Ammal, S. S. C. (1998). Faraday Trans. 94, 3313-3319.]). Correspondingly, the H atom was considered to be split between the two possible positions at N2 and N4. In both positions, an intra­molecular hydrogen bond is formed with H⋯A distances amounting to 1.93 (10) Å for N2—H2⋯N4 and 1.86 (12) Å for N4—H4⋯N2 (Table 1[link]). Finally, it is noted that the mol­ecule is essentially planar with angles between the normal vectors of the NNCNN mean plane A and the three rings B, C, and D amounting to 9.71 (16) (A/B), 5.28 (3) (A/C), and 12.18 (13)° (A/D).

Compound 3 was isolated in later fractions of the column that was used to purify 2. Such triazole compounds have been identified as products of thermal verdazyl decomposition at 473 K or after four days of refluxing at 353 K in benzene (Neugebauer et al., 1972[Neugebauer, F. A., Otting, W., Smith, H. O. & Trischmann, H. (1972). Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. 105, 549-553.]). Here, the formation of 3 was observed under much less harsh conditions. The bond lengths within ring A suggest bond orders between single and double bonds, in accordance with the aromatic character of 1,2,4-triazoles. Closer inspection reveals that three of the five bonds are considerably longer than the other two [N1—N2 = 1.375 (4), N2—C2 = 1.358 (5), and N3—C1: 1.370 (5) Å compared to N1—C1 = 1.321 (5) and N3—C2 = 1.326 (5) Å], indicating that the resonance structure given in Fig. 5[link] is the most important one. The amino-nitro­gen N4 is connected to ring A by a bond of similar character to the bonds within the ring [N4—C2 = 1.371 (5) Å] whereas its bond to phenyl ring D has essentially single-bond character [N4—C15 = 1.426 (6) Å]. The bonds connecting ring A with rings B and C also have mostly single-bond character [C1—C3 = 1.479 (5) and N2—C9 = 1.441 (5) Å). The mean planes of rings B, C, and D are tilted with respect to the mean plane of A and are arranged in a propeller-like manner [angles between normal vectors: A/B = 14.47 (14), A/C = 40.42 (14), and A/D = 20.67 (16)°].

3. Supra­molecular features

Compound 1 crystallizes with ortho­rhom­bic symmetry in space group Pbca, in which head-to-tail dimers between two mol­ecules are stacked along the a-axis direction (Fig. 2[link]). Within a dimer, the shortest contacts are 3.213 (5) and 3.372 (6) Å for N4⋯C7 and C19⋯C5, respectively. The short C5⋯C7 contact [3.277 (6) Å] connects pairs of dimers. The Br atom is not involved in halogen bonding, which is a structural motive attracting increasing attention (Metrangolo et al., 2008[Metrangolo, P., Meyer, F., Pilati, T., Resnati, G. & Terraneo, G. (2008). Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 47, 6114-6127.]; Gilday et al., 2015[Gilday, L., Robinson, S. W., Barendt, T. A., Langton, M. J., Mullaney, B. R. & Beer, P. D. (2015). Chem. Rev. 115, 7118-7195.]). Relatively short contacts between H19 as well as H9 and the Br1 atom of another mol­ecule connect different stacks (Table 1[link]). However, the observed distances of 3.05 Å (C19—H19⋯Br1) and 3.14 Å (C9—H9⋯Br1) are still longer than the sum of the van der Waals radii of H and Br, meaning that these are at best very weak hydrogen bonds.

The packing of 2 leading to anti­ferromagnetic coupling has already been described (Iwase et al., 2013[Iwase, K., Yamaguchi, H., Ono, T., Hosokoshi, Y., Shimokawa, T., Kono, Y., Kittaka, S., Sakakibara, T., Matsuo, A. & Kindo, K. (2013). Phys. Rev. B, 88, 184431.]).

Compound 3 has a similar structure to 1 in space group Pbca and with pairs of mol­ecules stacked along the a-axis direction (Fig. 3[link]). Here, the centroid-to-centroid distances of the A rings are 3.564 (3) and 4.661 (3) Å within and between the dimers, respectively. However, the shortest intra-dimer contact is a C—H⋯π inter­action (Table 2[link]) between rings C and D (C10—H10⋯C20, 2.75 Å). A similar contact is found between H17 and C19 (C17—H17⋯C19, 2.84 Å), forming a contact between different stacks. π-Stacking is observed between rings A and B, connecting pairs of dimers, with the shortest contacts being 3.229 (6) (C8⋯N3), 3.318 (6) (C8⋯C2), and 3.378 (6) Å (C7⋯C2). As with 1 and 2, no halogen bonding is observed, but the Br atom is involved in a very weak hydrogen bond (C14—H14⋯Br1, 2.99 Å; Table 2[link]).

4. Spectroscopy

Fig. 4[link]a shows the UV–Vis spectra of 1 and 2, while Fig. 4[link]b represents the EPR spectrum of 2 and its simulation (black and red lines, respectively). The UV–Vis spectra of 1 and 2 are typical for formazans and verdazyls, respectively, with the peaks in the visible range at 490 nm (1) as well as at 425 and 720 nm (2) being responsible for their intense red (1) or green colors (2). The EPR spectrum of 2 was simulated by assuming a g value of 2.00354 and hyperfine coupling constants (HFCC) of 16.77 and 16.48 MHz for the two pairs of nitro­gen nuclei. In addition, the approximate values for the HFCC of the phenyl ring protons could be obtained, amounting to 0.01 (CH2), 3.04 (H, rings B and D, ortho), 1.14 (H, rings B and D, meta), 3.34 (H, rings B and D, para), 1.14, (H, ring C, ortho), and 0.52 MHz (H, ring C, meta). The assignment of the protons is in accordance with that of Kopf et al. (1971[Kopf, P., Morokuma, K. & Kreilick, R. (1971). J. Chem. Phys. 54, 105-110.]).

Magn. Reson. 178, 42-55.]).

5. Database survey

The Cambridge Structural Database (CSD, Version 5.36; Groom et al., 2016[Groom, C. R., Bruno, I. J., Lightfoot, M. P. & Ward, S. C. (2016). Acta Cryst. B72, 171-179.]) was queried for other formazans, verdazyls, and 1,2,4-triazoles. The search revealed 21 examples of formazans if the only restriction was to have carbon substit­uents in the 1,3,5-positions. This number reduced to nine if all of these substituents were required to be phenyl-based, one of these nine examples being a metal complex of a formazan. The remaining eight structures include examples in which the bond lengths in the NNCNN unit alternate, as well as examples in which they are pairwisely equal in a similar manner to that described herein. Inter­estingly, 3,5-diphenyl-1-(4-bromo­phen­yl)formazan (regioisomer of 1, CCDC code EMEVUO; Tunç & Yıldırım, 2010[Tunç, T. & Yıldırım, L. T. (2010). The Open Crystallogr. J. 3, 54-58.]) shows alternating bond lengths, which reflects the fact that the two nitro­gen atoms are chemically inequivalent in this mol­ecule. An example with split hydrogen positions is 1,5-diphenyl-3-(p-nitro­phen­yl)formazan (GUHCIW; Iqbal et al., 2009[Iqbal, A., Moloney, M. G., Siddiqui, H. L. & Thompson, A. L. (2009). Tetrahedron Lett. 50, 4523-4525.]), which shows a similar stacking to that observed in 1 and can be formally derived from 1 by replacing the bromine with a nitro group. 33 examples for 1,3,5-aryl-substituted verdazyls were found in the CSD, only 14 of them Kuhn-verdazyls. The largest hitlist was obtained for 1,3,5-substituted 1,2,4-triazoles (1001 entries). This number reduced drastically if purely organic compounds were considered exclusively (42 hits) and even further if the substitutent at C5 was required to be a nitro­gen atom (four hits, no further restriction).

6. Synthesis and crystallization

The syntheses were performed following Berry et al., 2009[Berry, D. E., Hicks, R. G. & Gilroy, J. B. (2009). J. Chem. Educ. 86, 76-79.] (Fig. 5[link]). The hydrazone 4 required for the synthesis of 1 was synthesized by refluxing a solution of p-bromo­benzaldehyde with phenyl­hydrazine in ethanol and collecting the slightly yellow precipitate that formed after cooling the solution down to room temperature (rt).

To synthesize 1, 450 mg (1.72 mmol) of 4 and 80 mg (0.25 mmol) of tetra­butyl­ammonium bromide were dissolved in 11 mL of di­chloro­methane (DCM) and combined with 1.4 g of sodium carbonate in 11 mL of water to form a biphasic system, which was stirred at 273 K for 30 min. During this time, 1.8 mL (186 mg, 2 mmol) of aniline were dissolved in 4.5 mL of dilute hydro­chloric acid (ca 12%) and stirred at 273 K. To this solution, 55 mg (3.3 mmol) of sodium nitrite in 3 mL of water were added dropwise over the course of ten minutes, leading to the occurrence of a slight yellow color. This yellow solution was added carefully to the biphasic solution of 4 and an intense red color evolved within minutes. After one h, 20 mL of water were added and the temperature was allowed to increase to rt. After stirring for another 30 minutes at rt, the phases were separated. The organic phase was washed with water and dried over Na2SO4 before removing the solvent under reduced pressure. The raw product was subjected to column chromatography using aluminum oxide (AlOx, water content 5%) as stationary phase and DCM/cyclo­hexane (1:4). The red fractions were collected, yielding 1 as red solid in 66% yield (307 mg). Crystals of 1 were obtained by dissolving the solid in a mixture of DCM and hexane which was left to evaporate.

To obtain 2, 119 mg (0.31 mmol) of 1 were dissolved in 10 mL of di­methyl­formamide and mixed with 0.7 mL 2 M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and 0.65 mL of 37% formaldehyde solution. The mixture was stirred at rt in an open vessel with contact to air, leading to a change of color from red to green over the course of an hour. 20 mL of water and diethyl ether were then added to the solution and the phases were separated from each other. After drying the organic phase over Na2SO4, the raw product was subjected to column chromatography using AlOx (water content 5%) and di­ethyl­ether/cyclo­hexane (1:5) as eluent. The green fractions were collected and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure (yield: 37 mg, 30%). Crystals of 2 were obtained by dissolving the product in a mixture of DCM and hexane and leaving the green solution to evaporate.

Compound 3 was obtained by collecting the slightly yellow fractions that eluted from the column after 2 and removing the solvent. Dissolving the resulting brownish solid in a mixture of DCM and hexane and leaving the solution to evaporate afforded crystals suitable for X-ray crystallography.

Additional analytical data for 1 and 2. 1: 1H NMR (400 MHz, DCM-d2): δ 15.45 (s, 1H); 8.08 (dt, J = 8.8 MHz, 2.2 MHz, 2H); 7.75 (dm, J = 8.4 MHz, 4H); 7.61 (dt, J = 8.8 MHz, 2.2 MHz, 2H); 7.52 (ddt, J = 8.4 MHz, 7.2 MHz, 1.6 MHz, 4H); 7.36 (tt, J = 7.2 MHz, 1.2 MHz, 2H). ESI–MS (positive, m/z): calculated 377.04 ([M − H]+), found 377.04. UV–Vis: see above.

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.

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.
