(7E)-5-Benzyl-7-(2-chlorobenzylidene)-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-phenyl-3,3a,4,5,6,7-hexahydro-2H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridine

Abstract

In the title 2H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridine derivative, C32H27Cl2N3, the dihydropyrazole ring adopts an envelope conformation and the piperidine fused ring a twisted-chair conformation. Two short intramolecular C—H...Cl contacts are observed. The crystal packing is characterized by dimeric C—Cl...π interactions involving the 5-benzyl ring, with Cl...centroid and closest atomic Cl...π distances of 3.778 (2) and 3.366 (4) Å, respectively.
