3-(2-Ethoxyphenyl)-1-(3-nitrophenyl)triaz-1-ene

Abstract

The title compound, C14H14N4O3, exhibits a trans geometry about the N=N double bond in the triazene unit. The molecule is approximately planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.044 Å for all non-H atoms). An intramolecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond occurs. In the crystal, C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds lead to the formation of dimers which are, in turn, connected to each other by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming infinite chains of R2 2(8) graph-set motif.
