Abstract:
The title compounds, 4-benzylamino-3-(4-methylbenzyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5(4H)-one, C17H18N4O, (I), 3-(4-methylbenzyl)-4-(4-methylbenzylamino)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5(4H)-one, C18H20N4O, (II), and 3-(4-chlorobenzyl)-4-(4-methylbenzylamino)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5(4H)-one, C17H17ClN4O, (III), were obtained from the corresponding Schiff base in the presence of diglyme and NaBH(4). Each compound contains a 1,2,4-triazole ring and two benzene rings, which are essentially planar. The molecules are linked by a combination of intermolecular N-H...O and N-H...N hydrogen bonds. Additionally, there is a weak pi-pi stacking interaction in (I), involving the benzene ring of the aminobenzyl group and the partially aromatic 1,2,4-triazole moiety, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.7397 (10) A.

Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
