A mixture of 4'-methoxy-4-hydroxychalcone (0.64 g,2.5 mmol) and hydrazine hydrate (1 ml) in acetic acid (15 ml) was refluxed for 2 h. The reaction mixture was then cooled at room temperature, and poured into ice-cold water. The light yellow solid obtained was filtered, washed with water, dichloromethane, and dried. Colourless crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of an acetone/dichloromethane (3:1 v/v) solution at room temperature.
H atoms were positioned geometrically (C—H = 0.93–0.98 Å, O—H = 0.82 Å) and refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(C, O) for methyl and hydroxy H atoms.
The 2-pyrazoline ring system has attracted significant interest in organic and medicinal chemistry over the past several decades. Scaffolds containing the 2-pyrazoline (4,5-dihydropyrazole) heterocycle have demonstrated a wide range of biological activity, including anticancer activity through the inhibition of kinesin spindle protein, CB1 receptor antagonism for obesity, monoamine oxidase inhibition for depression, and a host of other antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory activities (Grimm et al., 2009). Some
of pyrazoline derivatives have been recently reported (Chen et al., 2009; Li et al., 2008). The synthesis and characterization of pyrazoline derivatives was also reported (Humaira et al., 2008; Shoman et al., 2009).In the molecule of the title compound (Fig. 1), the five-membered 2-pyrazoline ring assumes an π–π stacking interaction involving the C1–C6 aromatic rings, with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.5511 (6) Å.

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 > 2σ(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. |

The 2-pyrazoline ring system has attracted significant interest in organic and medicinal chemistry over the past several decades. Scaffolds containing the 2-pyrazoline (4,5-dihydropyrazole) heterocycle have demonstrated a wide range of biological activity, including anticancer activity through the inhibition of kinesin spindle protein, CB1 receptor antagonism for obesity, monoamine oxidase inhibition for depression, and a host of other antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory activities (Grimm et al., 2009). Some crystal structure of pyrazoline derivatives have been recently reported (Chen et al., 2009; Li et al., 2008). The synthesis and characterization of pyrazoline derivatives was also reported (Humaira et al., 2008; Shoman et al., 2009).
In the molecule of the title compound (Fig. 1), the five-membered 2-pyrazoline ring assumes an envelope conformation, with atom C7 displaced by 0.2690 (11) Å from the mean plane of the N1/N2/C8/C9 atoms. The benzene rings form a dihedral angle of 108.25 (4)°. In the crystal structure, centrosymmetrically related molecules are linked into dimers by intermolecular O—H···.O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) and by a π–π stacking interaction involving the C1–C6 aromatic rings, with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.5511 (6) Å.
