Hypothesis
The study aims to explore the effect of substituents on the structure of benzanilides.
Conclusion
The structure of the compound shows a twisted thiazole ring and various hydrogen bonding interactions.
Supporting Evidence
- The thiazole ring is twisted at a dihedral angle of 25.87° with respect to the benzene ring.
- Intermolecular hydrogen bonds link the molecules to form 2-D networks in the crystal lattice.
- Weak π–π interactions are observed between nearly parallel thiazole and benzene rings of adjacent molecules.
Takeaway
The researchers looked at how different parts of a molecule affect its shape, and they found that some parts twist away from each other.
Methodology
The compound was synthesized by refluxing 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride and 2-aminothiazole in anhydrous acetone.
