X-ray structure of the title compound, an antiviral agent moderately active towards Herpes simplex virus type 1, has been determined. The space group is P2i/n, unit cell parameters: a = 10,119, b = 7,529, c = 13,585 A, beta = 107,82 degrees, Z = 4. The structure was solved by the direct method and refined by least-squares procedure to R = 2.9%. The gauche-conformation about C4'-C5' bond and trans-conformation about O4'-C4' bond are realized in the molecule. The carboxyamide group at the C5 atom of triazol cycle provides a steric opportunity for the intramolecular hydrogen bond C1'-H1'...O6 formation.
