Abstract

A sterically crowded conformation in solution for 1-aryl-2-(3-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)ethanol derivatives 3 is suggested from spectroscopic data. The X-ray difraction analysis of structures 3a and 3d confirms such preferred structural array giving the unexpected synclinal conformation in the solid state. Bond distances between the triazole methyl hydrogen atoms and the center of the aromatic ring are in good agreement with those previously reported in the literature to explain this type of structural arrangement.
