Crystal structure of ethyl 4-[(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl]benzoate

Abstract

In the title mol­ecule, C13H14N2O2, the dihedral angle between the pyrazole and benzene ring mean planes is 76.06 (11)°, and the conformation of the ethyl side chain is anti [C—O—C—C = −175.4 (3)°]. In the crystal, the only directional inter­actions are very weak C—H ⋯π inter­actions involving both the pyrazole and benzene rings, leading to the formation of a three-dimensional network.
