Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and DFT studies of 1-benzyl-3-[(1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-5-yl)meth­yl]-2,3-di­hydro-1H-1,3-benzo­diazol-2-one monohydrate

In the title mol­ecule, C(24)H(21)N(5)O·H(2)O, the di­hydro­benzo­diazole moiety is not quite planar, while the whole mol­ecule adopts a U-shaped conformation in which there is a close approach of the two benzyl groups. In the crystal, chains of alternating mol­ecules and lattice water extending along [201] are formed by O—H(UncoordW)⋯O(Dhyr) and O—H(UncoordW)⋯N(Trz) (UncoordW = uncoordinated water, Dhyr = di­hydro and Trz = triazole) hydrogen bonds. The chains are connected into layers parallel to (010) by C—H(Trz)⋯O(UncoordW) hydrogen bonds with the di­hydro­benzo­diazole units in adjacent layers inter­calating to form head-to-tail π-stacking [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.5694 (11) Å] inter­actions between them, which generates the overall three-dimensional structure. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (52.1%), H⋯C/C⋯H (23.8%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (11.2%) inter­actions. Hydrogen-bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. Density functional theory (DFT) optimized structures at the B3LYP/ 6–311 G(d,p) level are compared with the experimentally determined mol­ecular structure in the solid state. The HOMO–LUMO behaviour was elucidated to determine the energy gap.
