Comment top

Pyrazoles are one of the important classes of biologically active compounds. Pyrazole derivatives exhibit parasiticidal properties (Bristol-Meyers, 1973) and have been studied as potential antimalarial agents (Gein Stein et al., 1970). Pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolines are known to exhibit bactericidal activity (Fraghaly et al., 1989). The present work was undertaken to explore the possible application of pyrazole analogues as antitubercular agents. In this respect, we have synthesized a series of pyrazoles and evaluated them for antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. The title compound, (I), was prepared by condensation of 2,5-dichlorophenylhydrazine with benzoylacetone in methanol in the presence of a catalytic amount of acetic acid. The structure of the product was confirmed by NMR spectroscopy. To confirm further the position of attachment of the methyl and phenyl groups on the pyrazole ring, and to obtain more detailed structural information on the conformation of the molecule in the crystalline state, its X-ray structure determination has been carried out and the results are presented here. \sch

The crystal of (I) contains two molecules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit. Fig. 1 shows a displacement ellipsoid plot of the labelled asymmetric unit, and selected geometric parameters are presented in Table 1. A pairwise comparison between these two molecules shows no significant differences in bond lengths or angles. Pairwise comparisons of torsion angles, however, do show some differences between the molecules: C9A—N1A—C1A—C2A and N1A—C9A—C10A—C15A are −67.9 (2) and −45.2 (2)°, respectively, while C9B—N1B—C1B—C2B and N1B—C9B—C10B—C15B are −79.6 (2) and −37.6 (3)°, respectively.

The pyrazole moiety in both molecules is nearly planar, with overall root-mean square deviations (r.m.s.d.) for the ring atoms of 0.005 (1) Å for either molecule. It has been reported (Krishna et al., 1999) that the N—N bond length in the pyrazoline ring varies over a wide range, from 1.234 (8) to 1.385 (4) Å, where the length depends on the substituents bonded to the N atoms. Accordingly, the length of the adjacent CN bond ranges from 1.288 (4) to 1.461 (8) Å. These differences are caused by a varying degree of conjugation in the π-electron portion of the pyrazoline ring, which is sensitive to the nature of the substituent(s) bonded to the atoms of the π system. The N1—N2 bond length of 1.3674 (19) Å found in (I) further extends this range, approximating the length of a pure single bond (1.41 Å; Burke-Laing & Laing, 1976). There is an extended conjugation between the π-electron system of the pyrazole ring and the phenyl group, which is evident from the bond lengths N2C7, C7—C8, C8C9 and C9—C10.

The mode of packing of (I) along the c direction is illustrated in Fig. 2. In addition to weak C—H···π interactions, van der Waals forces contribute to the stabilization of the crystal structure.

In Table 2, Cg1 is the centroid of ring N1A/N2A/C7A/C8A/C9A and Cg2 is the centroid of ring C10B/C11B/C12B/C13B/C14B/C15B.

Experimental top

A mixture of 2,5-dichlorophenylhydrazine (0.354 g, 2 mmol) and benzoylacetone (0.324 g, 2 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (10 ml). To this reaction mixture were added 2 drops of acetic acid and the solution was refluxed for 5 h. After completion of the reaction, the solvent was removed and the resultant solid was crystallized from methanol to afford colourless crystals of (I) suitable for X-ray analysis. Spectroscopic analysis: 1H NMR (CDCl3, δ, p.p.m.): 2.39 (s, 3H), 6.36 (s, 1H), 7.17–7.20(m, 2H), 7.26–7.29 (m, 3H), 7.32 (t, 2H), 7.49 (q, 1H); 13C NMR (CDCl3, δ, p.p.m.): 14.0, 106.7, 127.8, 128.5, 128.6, 130.1,130.2, 130.3, 130.7, 131.2, 133.1, 139.2, 145.8, 150.5.

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.
