CRYSTAL STRUCTURE AND HIRSHFELD SURFACE ANALYSIS OF 6-BROMO-2-(4-CHLOROPHENYL)-3-((1-OCTYL-1H-1,2,3-TRIAZOL-4- YL)METHYL)-3H-IMIDAZO[4,5-b]PYRIDINE

6-bromo-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-((1-octyl-1h-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl)-3h-imidazo[4,5-b] pyridine, is built up from the 4-chlorophenyl and imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine ring system linked through a methylene bridge to a 1,2,3-triazole ring, which in turn also carries a substituent. the planar imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine ring is inclined by 19.37(12)° and 889.27(13)° to the phenyl and triazole rings, respectively, while phenyl and triazole rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 71.23(15)°. in the crystal, the molecules are linked via intermolecular c— htrz···ntrz (trz = triazole) hydrogen bonds, enclosing r^33(21) and r^33(22) ring motifs, they are further linked through the bifurcated intermolecular c—htrz···ntrz hydrogen bonds into a network consisting of double-column structure running along the b-axis direction. the hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from h ··· h (57.2%), h ··· n/n ··· h (17.6%), h ··· c/c ··· h (9.6%), h ··· cl/cl ··· h (7.9%) and h ··· br/br ··· h (7.0%) interactions. no significant π ··· π or c–h ··· π interactions are observed.
