1,4-Bis(4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)benzene monohydrate

The title compound was prepared by the reaction of N,N^'-diformylhydrazine and p-phenylenediamine. The X-ray analysis revealed that there is a hydrogen-bond chain composed of water molecules and 1,4-bis(4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)benzene molecules in the crystal. The dihedral angle between the 1,2,4-triazole and substituted-benzene rings is 34.2(2)°.
