3-Chloro-6-nitro-1-[(1-octyl-1 H -1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl]-1 H -indazole

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C 18 H 23 ClN 6 O 2 , consists of two independent molecules differing primarily in the dihedral angles between the mean planes of the indazole and triazole moieties [78.50 (8) in one and 72.39 (7)° in the other]. One of the molecules shows positional disorder of the terminal part of its octyl chain. In the crystal, C—H... X ( X = Cl, N, O) hydrogen bonds and C—H...π and π-stacking interactions are observed: together these generate a three-dimensional network.
