In the title compound C11H13N3OS, the aromatic ring and the dihydropyrazole ring are oriented orthogonally with respect to each other, making a dihedral angle of 89.92 (9)°. An intramolecular O—H⋯S hydrogen bond occurs. In the crystal, weak N—H⋯N and N—H⋯S hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a columnar stack propagating along the b axis.

Thiosemicarbazide purchased from the local market was crystallized from ethanol and dried under vacuum desiccator over silica gel (m.p. 441- 443 K) before use. A hot solution of benzoyl acetone (1.62 g, 10 mmol) in absolute ethanol was mixed with the hot solution of thiosemicarbazide (1.22 g, 10 mmol) in the same solvent. The mixture was refluxed for 6 h on a water bath. After reducing the volume, a white product was filtered off. This product was washed with ethanol for several times and dried in a vacuum desiccator over silica gel (m.p. 449–451 K. Yield 1.95 g (82.9%). Anal. Calc. for C11H13N3OS: C, 56.15; H, 5.57; N, 17.86; S, 13.62%. Found: C, 56.03; H, 5.61; N, 17.82; S, 13.57%. FT—IR (KBr, cm-1) νmax: 3360 (m, OH), 3260 (s, NH), 1642 (m, C=N), 999 (m, N—N). Then the crystals suitable for the crystallographic study were prepared by slow evaporation from a ethanol-petroleum ether (2:1 v/v) solution of the ligand.
Methyl groups were idealized (C—H = 0.96 A °) and allowed to ride. In all cases, H-atom displacement parameters were taken as Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl groups or 1.2Ueq(C,O,N) otherwise.
Sulfur-Nitrogen ligand and their metal complexes have been reported as biologically important compounds possessing antiviral (Davis et al., 1957), antibacterial (Vattum & Rao, 1959), antipyretic (Wilder Smith, 1964), fungicidal (Grii & Khare, 1976) and analgesic (Wilder Smith, 1964) activities. It was reported that pyridine-2carboxaldehyde dithiosemicarbazone displays anticancer activity. However, no mechanism of action was proposed (Brockaman et al., 1959). French and co-workers (French & Blang, 1965; Freedlander & French, 1958; French & Blang, 1966) studied the carcinostatics thiosemicarbazones containing nitrogen heterocycles. The present investigation is an attempt to prepare a Schiff base ligand (HL) by the condensation of benzoyl acetone and thiosemicarbazide. During crystallization from ethanol-petroleum ether, the crystals of the title compound appropriate for single crystal X-ray diffraction were obtained.

the aromatic ring and the dihydropyrazole ring are oriented orthogonally with respect to each other [angle between these two rings is 89.92 (9) °]. Weak N–H···N (3.158 (2) Å) and N–H···S (3.5827 (17) Å) make the moloecules pack into a columnar stack propagating along b axis (see Figure 3).For the biological activity of sulfur–nitrogen ligand compounds, see: Wilder Smith (1964); Grii & Khare (1976); French & Blang (1966); Davis Parke & Co (1957); Vattum & Rao (1959); Brockaman et al.

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. |

Sulfur-Nitrogen ligand and their metal complexes have been reported as biologically important compounds possessing antiviral (Davis et al., 1957), antibacterial (Vattum & Rao, 1959), antipyretic (Wilder Smith, 1964), fungicidal (Grii & Khare, 1976) and analgesic (Wilder Smith, 1964) activities. It was reported that pyridine-2carboxaldehyde dithiosemicarbazone displays anticancer activity. However, no mechanism of action was proposed (Brockaman et al., 1959). French and co-workers (French & Blang, 1965; Freedlander & French, 1958; French & Blang, 1966) studied the carcinostatics thiosemicarbazones containing nitrogen heterocycles. The present investigation is an attempt to prepare a Schiff base ligand (HL) by the condensation of benzoyl acetone and thiosemicarbazide. During crystallization from ethanol-petroleum ether, the crystals of the title compound appropriate for single crystal X-ray diffraction were obtained.
In the crystal structure, the aromatic ring and the dihydropyrazole ring are oriented orthogonally with respect to each other [angle between these two rings is 89.92 (9) °]. Weak N–H···N (3.158 (2) Å) and N–H···S (3.5827 (17) Å) make the moloecules pack into a columnar stack propagating along b axis (see Figure 3).
