Ethyl 5-methyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylate

Abstract

In the title compound, C12H12N4O4, the 1,2,3-triazole ring and the nitro group form dihedral angles of 37.93 (5) and 8.97 (12)°, respectively, with the phenyl ring. The molecular structure is stabilized by an intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bond, which generates an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...N hydrogen bonds into layers lying parallel to (100). The crystal structure is further consolidated by π–π [centroid–centroid distance = 3.6059 (6) Å] interactions.
