Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 5-[(5-nitro-1H-indazol-1-yl)methyl]-3-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole
Abstract
In the title compound, C17H14N4O3, the indazole unit is planar to within 0.0171 (10) Å and makes dihedral angles of 6.50 (6) and 6.79 (4)°, respectively, with the nitro and pendant phenyl groups. The conformation of the oxazole ring is best described as an envelope. In the crystal, oblique stacks along the a-axis direction are formed by π–π stacking interactions between the indazole unit and the pendant phenyl rings of adjacent molecules. The stacks are linked into pairs through C—H...O hydrogen bonds. Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots indicate that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H...H (36.3%), O...H/H...O (23.4%), C...H/H...C (13.4%) and N...H/H...N (11.4%) interactions.
