title: 1-[4-(Difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-N-(2,3-dimethylphenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide.
abstract: In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(18)H(16)F(2)N(4)O(2), the 1,2,4-triazole ring forms dihedral angles of 3.6 (2) and 14.9 (6)° with the 4-difluoro-meth-oxy-substituted benzene ring and the 2,3-dimethyl-substituted benzene ring, respectively. The OCHF(2) group is twisted away from the plane of the benzene ring, as shown by the C-O-C-C torsion angle of 145.8 (2)°. The conformation is stabilized by an inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bond. In the crystal, short C-H⋯O inter-actions lead to chains of mol-ecules.
