Crystal structure of 2-{[5-(methylsulfanyl)-4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl]methyl}benzo[d]thiazole
In the structure of the title compound, C17H14N4O2, the triazole ring exhibits inter-planar angles of 63.86 (2) and 76.96 (2)° with the phenyl and benzo-thia-zole planes, respectively. The C-C-C angle at the methyl-ene group is rather wide at 114.28 (4)°. The packing involves three borderline C-H⋯N contacts, two of which combine to form layers parallel to ac, and a pairing of the triazole rings across an inversion centre [inter-planar distance of 3.1852 (2) Å].
