Binary solvent participation in crystals of a multi-aromatic 1,2,3-triazole by Jonathan Filley

“…All X—H groups, and seven out of ten heteroatoms with available lone-pair electrons, participate in hydrogen bonding, with the aid of dimer-bridging water molecules and acetonitrile molecules whose methyl groups form close contacts with oxygen atoms. The triazole itself is a dimer made using click chemistry from readily available and inexpensive starting materials and is a precursor to larger oligomers, as well as to compounds with a wide array of readily manipulated functionality.…”
