The structures of enyl-3-trifluoromethyl-s-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine (
1), and its isomer, -trifluoromethyl-s-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazin-6-one,
(2), C19H15F3-N4O, have been solved. The two molecules differ in the
bonding at N5 and in the conformation of the pyridazine ring which con
tains this atom. This partially hydrogenated six-membered ring is puck
ered in both molecules, adopting a half-chair shape in (1) and a twist
-boat shape in (2). In both molecules, the triazole ring and the mean
plane of the pyridazine ring are not coplanar.
