Crystal structure, Hirshfeld analysis and a mol-ecular docking study of a new inhibitor of the Hepatitis B virus (HBV): ethyl 5-methyl-1,1-dioxo-2-{[5-(pentan-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxa-diazol-3-yl]meth-yl}-2 H-1,2,6-thia-diazine-4-carboxyl-ate

The title compound, C₁₅H₂₂N₄O₅S, was prepared via alkyl-ation of 3-(chloro-meth-yl)-5-(pentan-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxa-diazole in anhydrous dioxane in the presence of tri-ethyl-amine. The thia-diazine ring has an envelope conformation with the S atom displaced by 0.4883 (6) Å from the mean plane through the other five atoms. The planar 1,2,4-oxa-diazole ring is inclined to the mean plane of the thia-diazine ring by 77.45 (11)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming chains propagating along the b-axis direction. Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots have been used to analyse the inter-molecular contacts present in the crystal. Mol-ecular docking studies were use to evaluate the title compound as a potential system that inter-acts effectively with the capsid of the Hepatitis B virus (HBV), supported by an experimental in vitro HBV replication model.
