Tetrakis[(1-phenyltetrazol-5-yl)sulfanylmethyl]methane

Abstract

The title compound, C33H28N16S4, prepared by the divergent method, presents a core unit for further synthesis of tetrazole-containing dendrimers. The central C atom lies on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis. π–π Interactions and weak non-classical C—H...N hydrogen bonds are responsible for the formation of layers parallel to the bc plane, with van der Waals interactions between them.
