2-Methyl-2,4-di-4-pyridyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepine acetic acid solvate
Abstract
In the title compound, C20H18N4·CH3COOH, the benzene ring forms dihedral angles of 81.34 (11) and 54.32 (11)° with the two pyridine rings. In the crystal, intermolecular O—H...N hydrogen bonding links one 1,5-benzodiazepine molecule and one acetic acid solvent molecule into a dimer. These dimers, related by translation along the b axis, are further linked into chains via weak intermolecular N—H...N hydrogen bonds.
