“…The C3-C7/N4 pyridyl, C1/C2/N2/N3/O1 oxadiazole and C8-C13 phenyl rings are close to co-planar with the dihedral angles between pyridyl and oxadiazole rings being 4.88 (9) � , oxadiazole and phenyl rings 4.27 (10) � and pyridyl and phenyl rings 2.27 (9) � . The bond distances and angles of the 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring [C1-N2 = 1.298 (2); C2-N3 = 1.277 (2) A ˚] are in good agreement with values reported previously (Jasinski et al, 2011;Paswan et al, 2015Paswan et al, , 2016Singh et al, 2007). The C-N bond distance in the pyridine ring, C5-N4 = 1.336 (2) A ˚, is slightly longer than the corresponding bond in a similar compound (1.326 (2) A ˚; Singh et al, 2006), probably due to the N� � �H interaction (Fig.…”
