Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of N-(4-chloro-phen-yl)-5-cyclo-propyl-1-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamide.

The title compound, C19H17ClN4O2, was obtained via a two-step synthesis involving the enol-mediated click Dimroth reaction of 4-azido-anisole with methyl 3-cyclo-propyl-3-oxo-propano-ate leading to the 5-cyclo-propyl-1-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carb-oxy-lic acid and subsequent acid amidation with 4-chloro-aniline by 1,1'-carbonyl-diimidazole (CDI). It crystallizes in space group P21/n, with one mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit. In the extended structure, two mol-ecules arranged in a near coplanar fashion relative to the triazole ring planes are inter-connected by N-H⋯N and C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds into a homodimer. The formation of dimers is a consequence of the above inter-action and the edge-to-face stacking of aromatic rings, which are turned by 58.0 (3)° relative to each other. The dimers are linked by C-H⋯O inter-actions into ribbons. DFT calculations demonstrate that the frontier mol-ecular orbitals are well separated in energy and the HOMO is largely localized on the 4-chloro-phenyl amide motif while the LUMO is associated with aryl-triazole grouping. A Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed to further analyse the inter-molecular inter-actions.
