1-(3-Chloro-phen-yl)-2-methyl-4-nitro-1H-imidazole-5-carboxamide
Abstract:
In the crystal structure of the title compound, C(11)H(9)ClN(4)O(3), pairs of N-H⋯N(imidazole) hydrogen bonds connect the mol-ecules into centrosymmetric dimers, which are further connected by N-H⋯O(carbamo-yl) hydrogen bonds into C(4) chains along [010]. Inter-play of these two kinds of hydrogen bonds connect the mol-ecules into layers perpendicular to [101]. The imidazole [maximum deviation 0.0069 (9) Å] and phenyl rings are inclined at a dihedral angle of 58.44 (6)°; the nitro group is almost coplanar [dihedral angle 5.8 (2)°] with the imidazole ring while the carbamoyl group is almost perpendicular [70.15 (13)°] to it.

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Amides and Nitriles
The IUPAC and common names of amides are derived from the parent carboxylic acid, by replacing the suffix “oic acid” and “ic acid,” respectively, with “amide.” In the following example, the IUPAC name ethanamide is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetamide, is obtained from acetic acid.
