“…The C7 N1, C8 N2, C21 N3 and C22 N4 bond distances are 1.137 (2), 1.144 (2), 1.140 (2) and 1.138 (2) A Ê , respectively, showing N C triple-bond character. These values agree well with literature values (Ocak et al, 2004). Experimental 1,3-Benzenediol (0.32 g, 2.91 mmol) and 4-nitrophthalonitrile (1.00 g, 5.78 mmol) were dissolved in dry dimethylformamide (40 ml) with stirring under N 2 .…”
