The structure was determined by the direct-phasing program MULTAN and by Fourier methods. The triazoline ring makes an angle of 62° with the benzene ring, and this result has been compared with the dihedral angle value between the pyrazolone and phenyl planes of antipyrine derivatives. A theoretical calculation of conformational energy is also reported and structure-activity relationships are discussed.
