Generally, two isomeric substances of thiazolotriazinone,
viz. 7H-thiazolo[3,2-b][1,2,4]triazin-7-one and 4H-thiazolo-
moieties are connected by face-to-face contacts through two
kinds of double hydrogen bonds (N—Hꢀ ꢀ ꢀO and N—Hꢀ ꢀ ꢀS),
which form planar ribbons along the a axis. The ribbons are
crosslinked through C—Hꢀ ꢀ ꢀꢀ interactions between the
phenyl rings. The molecular structures of two regioisomeric
compounds, namely 6-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-7H-1,3-thiazolo[3,2-b]-

2,3-c][1,2,4]triazin-4-one derivatives [analogues of (II) and
III), respectively], are obtained by the reaction of the
respective dihalogenoalkanes and thioxotriazinones [analo-
gues of (I)], which can be substituted by various alkyl, cyclo-
alkyl, aryl, heteroaryl and benzyl groups. However, the
isomers have been mainly identified from the synthetic
procedures and by spectroscopic studies. Only one crystal-
lographic study has been carried out, on benzyl-substituted
[1,2,4]triazin-7-one, C H N OS, (II), and 3-phenyl-6,7-di-
hydro-4H-1,3-thiazolo[2,3-c][1,2,4]triazin-4-one, C H N OS,

crystallography and spectroscopic studies. The crystal struc-
tures of (II) and (III) both show two crystallographically
independent molecules. While the two compounds are
isomers, the unit-cell parameters and crystal packing are quite
different and (II) has a chiral crystal structure.
Thus, we considered that a full characterization of the two
isomers was essential for understanding the difference in the
molecular structures and the spectroscopic results. Therefore,
the crystal structures of the starting compound, (I), and both
of the phenyl-substituted isomers, (II) and (III), are now
discussed, along with the results of the condensation reaction.
In the crystal structure of (I), the phenyl and heterocyclic
rings are not coplanar and the dihedral angle between the
planes of the two rings defined by atoms N1/N2/C3/N4/C5/C6

(Odds & Abbott, 1984; Boschelli et al., 1993). Because the
base part of thioxotriazinone, i.e. 5-hydroxy-3-mercapto-1,2,4-
triazine, in (I) is widely considered to be an active constituent
of biomolecules (Fotouhi et al., 2008), information about its
structure and intermolecular interactions is crucial for
chemists and pharmacologists. While many synthetic studies
have been reported, few crystal structure analyses of deriva-
tives of thioxotriazinone are known. Only four reports of the
methyl derivatives (Ferrari et al., 1995; Voutsas et al., 1978)
