Comment

Oxadiazole is a five-membered heterocyclic aromatic chemical compound having two carbons, two nitrogen, and one oxygen atoms and two double bonds. Up to now, a large number of oxadiazole derivatives have been prepared and a series of novel substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives were synthesized (Bachwani et al., 2011). In addition, electron transporting 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety has been connected to many chelating ligands to obtain luminescent complexes with more new function. (Lv et al., 2010) 1,3,4-oxadiazole, which has abundant N-donor and O-donor sites is easily to form single-crystal. However, there has been limited study about their crystal properties. To further explore these types of structures, we synthesized the title compound and its crystal structure is presented herein. The molecular structure of the title compound is represented in Fig. 1. As shown in figure 1, the bond length between O1 with C8 is 1.3608 (19) Å and is nearly the bond length between O1 with C7(1.3754) Å. The angle of C8—O1—C7 is 102.79 (11) Å. Similarly, the bond length of C7 with N1 is approximate the bond length of C8 with N2. They are 1.279 (2) Å, 1.296 (2) Å. The bond length between N1 with N2 is 1.4129 (19) Å. The dihedral angle between the phenyl and the Oxadiazole ring bonded to the imino group is 26.37 °. The torsion angle between C(7)—N(1)—N(2)—C(8) is -0.3 (2) °. As depicted in figure 2 and 3, intramolecular N—H···N hydrogen bonds stabilize the molecular configuration.

Experimental

The benzaldehyde (0.01 mol) and ethanol was added to semicarbazide hydrochloride (0.011 mol) refluxed 2 h. And then the obtained semicarbazone was oxidized by bromine liquid in acetic acid. The title compound (0.02 mmol) was dissolved in alcohol (3 ml) with a little aqueous solution. The resulting solution was allowed to stand at room temperature. Evaporation of the solvent, after three weeks yellow crystals with good quality were obtained from the filtrate and dried in air.

Refinement

All H atoms are positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.93-0.98 Å, N—H = 0.86 Å, O—H = 0.82 Å, and with Uiso = 1.2Ueq(C,N) or 1.5Ueq(O).

Special details

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'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.
