3-(Adamantan-1-yl)-4-[(E)-(2,6-difluorobenzylidene)amino]-1-[(4-ethylpiperazin-1-yl)methyl]-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione

In the title compound, C26H34F2N6S, the triazole ring is linked to a benzene ring via an imine bond [N=C = 1.255 (2) angstrom; conformation: E], with a dihedral angle of 25.21 (11)degrees between the rings. The 4-ethylpiperazinyl residue is folded away from the thione-S atom. In the crystal, helical supramolecular chains propagating along [010] and sustained by weak C-S center dot center dot center dot pi (triazole) interactions occur [S center dot center dot center dot centroid distance = 3.2872 (10) angstrom]. Links between these chains are of the type benzene-C-H center dot center dot center dot N(imine) and pi-pi [between centrosymmetrically related benzene rings with an inter-centroid distance of 3.9241 (15) angstrom] and result in a three-dimensional architecture.
