Synthesis and crystal structure of 2-anilino-6<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-5-(1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone-4-ylene)-1,3,4-thiadiazine

A novel pyrazolone derivative 2-anilino-6H-5-(1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone-4-ylene)-1,3,4-thiadiazine (PMCP-PTSC) containing NNS hexa-atomic heterocycle has been obtained and characterized by means of single crystal X-ray diffraction, IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopies. It is interesting that when grown from two different solvents, two different crystalline structures are formed. The monoclinic crystal A belongs to a P2₁/c space group. The unit cell parameters are a = 16.414(4) Å, b = 12.530(3) Å, c = 8.432(1) Å, = 91.75(2) Å, and Z = 4. The triclinic crystal B belongs to a P space group. The unit cell parameters are a = 11.386(2) Å, b = 12.326(2) Å, c = 12.411(3) Å, = 83.07(1)°, = 87.76(2)°, = 86.52(2)°, and Z = 4. The structure analyses show the title compound is the keto-form. Dimers in crystal packing of A and supramolecular one-dimensional (B) concatenate structures were assembled by the intermolecular hydrogen bonds.
