Employing a synergistic combination of theoretical density functional theory (DFT) and experimental techniques, we conducted a comprehensive analysis elucidating the structural and pharmacological attributes of 5-(adamantan-1-yl)-4-butyl-2,4-dihydro-3-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione (5A4BT) as a potent COX inhibitor. The X-ray crystallographic data of 5A4BT showed the pivotal role played by weak interactions, notably π-π and C-H-π interactions, alongside hydrogen bonding, in orchestrating the intricate supramolecular architectures within the crystalline lattice. A quantitative analysis of the arrangement of the crystal structure, as well as both inter- and intramolecular interactions, was conducted using Hirshfeld surfaces and 2D fingerprint plots.
