A mixture of (2E)-1-(4-methylphenyl)-3-[4-(methylthio)phenyl]prop-2-en-1-one (2.68 g, 0.01 mol) and a molar equivalent of hydrazine hydrate (5 ml, 80%) in formic acid (15 ml) was heated on an oil bath at 373 K for 3–5 hrs (Fig.3). The reaction mass was then poured into ice cold water and neutralized with sodium bicarbonate solution. The solid obtained was filtered, washed with water, dried, and recrystallized from methanol. (yield: 70%; m.p.: 431–433 K). Analysis found: C 69.56, H 5.79, N 8.94, S 10.25%; C18H18N2OS requires: C 69.65, H 5.84, N 9.02, S 10.33%.
All H atoms were placed in their calculated places and all H atoms were refined using a riding model with C—H = 0.93 to 0.98 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.19–1.49Ueq(C).
Pyrazolines have been reported to exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities such as antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-depressent, anti viral activities (Elguero, 1984) and analgesic activities (El-Emary & Bakhite, 1999). Large numbers of pyrazoles are used as antibacterial (Rathelot et al. 2002), anti-inflammatory (Mithun & Holla, 2006; Holla et al. 2000; 2006), antiparasitic (Cottineau et al. 2002) and antidiabetic drugs (Om Prakash et al. 2006). The crystal structures of the following pyrazole aldehydes viz., 5-Chloro-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (Trilleras et al. 2005) and 1-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (Shanmuga Sundara Raj et al. 1999) have been reported. The newly synthesized pyrazolecarbaldehyde, (I), C18H18N2OS, is found to possess good antibacterial activity and its crystal structure is reported.
The title molecule exists as an L-shaped structure with the mean plane of the 4-methylphenyl group twisted slightly about the mean plane of the pyrazole-1-carbaldehyde by 4.7 (2)° which in turn makes an angle of 82.4 (7)° with the mean plane of the thiophenyl group (Fig. 1). The S-methyl group is twisted slightly out of plane with the phenyl group [C7A–S–C4A–C3A torsion angle = 17.81 (16)°] probably due to steric repulsion between the methyl-H and the phenyl-H atoms. The methyl hydrogen atoms on C7B are disordered [H7BA, H7BB, H7BC (0.49 (4) & H7BD, H7BE, H7BF (0.51 (4)].
Crystal packing is stabilized by intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonding between a thiophenyl hydrogen [H2AA] and the carbaldehyde oxygen [O] which link the molecules into chains in an alternate inverted pattern parallel and oblique to the bc face and along the a axis of the unit cell (Fig. 2).

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. |

Pyrazolines have been reported to exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities such as antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-depressent, anti viral activities (Elguero, 1984) and analgesic activities (El-Emary & Bakhite, 1999). Large numbers of pyrazoles are used as antibacterial (Rathelot et al. 2002), anti-inflammatory (Mithun & Holla, 2006; Holla et al. 2000; 2006), antiparasitic (Cottineau et al. 2002) and antidiabetic drugs (Om Prakash et al. 2006). The crystal structures of the following pyrazole aldehydes viz., 5-Chloro-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (Trilleras et al. 2005) and 1-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (Shanmuga Sundara Raj et al. 1999) have been reported. The newly synthesized pyrazolecarbaldehyde, (I), C18H18N2OS, is found to possess good antibacterial activity and its crystal structure is reported.
The title molecule exists as an L-shaped structure with the mean plane of the 4-methylphenyl group twisted slightly about the mean plane of the pyrazole-1-carbaldehyde by 4.7 (2)° which in turn makes an angle of 82.4 (7)° with the mean plane of the thiophenyl group (Fig. 1). The S-methyl group is twisted slightly out of plane with the phenyl group [C7A–S–C4A–C3A torsion angle = 17.81 (16)°] probably due to steric repulsion between the methyl-H and the phenyl-H atoms. The methyl hydrogen atoms on C7B are disordered [H7BA, H7BB, H7BC (0.49 (4) & H7BD, H7BE, H7BF (0.51 (4)].
Crystal packing is stabilized by intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonding between a thiophenyl hydrogen [H2AA] and the carbaldehyde oxygen [O] which link the molecules into chains in an alternate inverted pattern parallel and oblique to the bc face and along the a axis of the unit cell (Fig. 2).
