1-(3,5-Dichlorophenyl)-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)triaz-1-ene

Abstract

The title molecule, C13H11Cl2N3O, is almost planar and adopts a trans conformation with respect to the –N=N– bond; the dihedral angle between the rings is 3.47 (2)°. The N—N bond lengths indicate the presence of single- and double-bond characters and hence the –N=N—NH– moiety. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds occur, and C—H...π and π–π stacking interactions are also observed.
