4-(2,4-Dichlorobenzylamino)-3-phenyl-5-p-tolyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole

Abstract

The title compound, C22H18Cl2N4, consists of four planar fragments. π–π interactions occur between the di­chloro­phenyl and tolyl groups. In the crystal structure, the mol­ecules are organized into layers by a network of N—H⋯N hydrogen-bond interactions. The compound shows considerable peroxy­nitrite scavenging activity, although weaker than the standards used, and antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphyl­ococcus aureus ATCC 25923 and Bacillus subtilis ATCC 663.
