Synthesis and Structure of 4-[(anthracene-9′-ylmethylene)amino]-5-R-2,4-Dihydro-3H-1,2,4-Triazole-3-Thiones

Abstract

By the condensation of 4-amino-5-R-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones with anthracene-9- carbaldehyde, respective 4-[(anthracene-9′-ylmethylene)amine)]-5-R-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones are prepared and structurally characterized by NMR, UV, IR spectroscopies, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and single crystal XRD. The effect of a substituent at position 5 in triazole moieties of azomethines obtained on their head-to-head or head-to-tail crystal packings is determined.
