7-(4-Bromo-phen-yl)-9-phenyl-7H-pyrrolo[3,2-e]tetra-zolo[1,5-c]pyrimidine
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(18)H(11)BrN(6), the phenyl ring is almost coplanar [dihedral angle 7.2 (1)°] with the planar (r.m.s. deviation 0.039 Å) tricyclic ring system while the 4-bromo-phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 33.98 (6)° with the ring system. Weak inter-molecular C-H⋯N and C-H⋯Br hydrogen-bonding inter-actions and π-π stacking [centroid-centroid distances = 3.7971 (17) and 3.5599 (16) Å] stabilize the crystal packing. A comparison of the structure to a MOPAC PM3 geometry optimization calculation in vacuo supports these observations.

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...
