Abstract:
In the title compound, C(8)H(7)ClN(4), the phenyl and tetra-zole rings are inclined at a dihedral angle of 67.52 (6)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by an N-H⋯N hydrogen bond into a chain structure along [010]. π-π inter-actions with centroid-centroid distances of 3.526 (1) Å between adjacent tetra-zole rings further link the chains, forming a ribbon structure.

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...

Alkyl Halides
Alkyl halides are halogen-substituted alkanes wherein one or more hydrogen atoms of an alkane is replaced by a halogen atom such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine. The carbon atom in an alkyl halide is bonded to the halogen atom, which is sp3-hybridized and exhibits a tetrahedral shape.
Unlike alkyl halides, compounds in which a halogen atom is bonded to an sp2 -hybridized carbon atom of a carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) are called vinyl halides. Whereas aryl...
