Comment

The design and synthesis of new tetrazole derivatives have attracted much interest owing to their ferroecletric (Sengupta & Mukherjee, 2010), luminescent (Wang et al., 2005) and magnetic properties (Grunert et al., 2004; Van Koningsbruggen et al., 2000). The crystal structure of 5-chloro-1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole (I) is shown in Fig. 1.

Experimental

5-Chloro-1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole (I) (54.18 mg, 0.3 mmol) was stirred for 0.5 h in H2O (5 ml) and CH3CN (5 ml). Upon slow evaporation of the filtrate at room temperatre for two weeks, well shaped colorless crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained. Yield: 90%. Elemental analysis calcd (%) for (I): C 46.55, H 2.79, N 31.02%; found: C 46.26, H 2.68, N 31.37%.

Refinement

H atoms were introduced in their idealized positions and refined as riding with C—H 0.93 Å.

Special details

Geometry. All s.u.'s (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u.'s is used for estimating s.u.'s involving l.s. planes.
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
