In the title compound, C15H11N3O, the dihedral angle betwen the heterocyclic rings is 9.23 (5)° and the dihedral angle between the benzoyl and pyrazole rings is 58.64 (5)°. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate R22(10) loops. The dimers stack into a column running parallel to the b-axis direction.

Comment top

The starting material, 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole, is a bidentate ligand which is commonly used in coordination chemistry (Jones et al. 1997 & Adams et al. 2006). The title compound is made up of a 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole and benzoyl fragments. This new compound has a potential to be applied as a tridentate ligand (ONN) involving the O atom on the carbonyl group and the N atom on the pyrazole and pyridine rings.

In the crystal structure, the mean planes of acetamide (O1/N1/C1/C7) and the benzene (C1/C2/C3/C4/C5/C6) fragments make a dihedral angle of 49.54 (5)° with each other. The mean planes of the pyrazole and pyridyl rings are slightly twisted and make a dihedral 9.23 (5)°. The C7—O1 bond length 1.2117 (12) is slightly longer that of the C=O found in another benzoyl derivative, 1-ethyl-1-methyl-3-(2-nitrobenzoyl)thiourea (Al-abbasi & Kassim, 2011). Other bond lengths and angles within the compounds are in the normal ranges (Allen et al. 1987).

A C—H···O intermolecular hydrogen bond links adjacent molecules into centrosymmetric dimers forming a one dimensional column parallel to the b-axis.

Experimental top

3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole (0.728 g, 5.0 mmol) was deprotonated by reacting with NaH (60% in mineral oil) in 30 ml of dry THF under N2 at room temperature for 2 h. Then, benzoyl chloride (0.702 g, 5.0 mmol) was added slowly to the mixture and the temperature was brought to reflux and left stirring for 4 hrs. The solvent was removed and the residue was re-dissolved in a minimum volume of DCM, washed 3 times with 30 ml of distilled water. The organic fraction was collected and dried with MgSO4, filtered and the solvent was removed in vacuo. Slow evaporation of acetone/DCM solution of the residue afforded colourless blocks of (I). Yield 78%.

Refinement top

All H atoms were positioned geometrically with C—H bond lengths in the range of 0.93 - 0.97 Å and refined in the riding model approximation with Uiso(H)=1.2Ueq(C).

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
