Abstract

In the title compound, C18H18N2O2, the pyrazole ring has a twisted conformation on the CH-CH2 bond. The tolyl ring and the 4-meth-oxy-phenyl ring are inclined to the mean plane of the pyrazole ring by 4.40 (9) and 86.22 (9)°, respectively, while the two aromatic rings are inclined to one another by 88.75 (9)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via bifurcated C-H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds and C-H⋯π inter-actions, forming sheets lying parallel to the ab plane.

Keywords: crystal structure; hydrogen bonding; pyrazole.
