Crystal structure of 3,6-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,4-dihydro-1,2,4,5-tetrazine

Abstract

The structure of the title compound, C12H10N6, at 100 K has monoclinic (P21/n) symmetry. Crystals were obtained as a yellow solid by reduction of 3,6-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine. The structure displays intermolecular hydrogen bonding of the N—H...N type, ordering molecules into infinite ribbons extending along the [100] direction.
