Abstract
In the title compound, C16H15N3O2·H2O, the mean plane of the approximately planar pyrazole ring [maximum deviation = 0.0474 (18) Å] makes dihedral angles of 86.32 (11) and 45.04 (10)° with the phenyl and pyridine rings, respectively. The dihedral angle between the phenyl and pyridine rings is 69.62 (11)°. In the crystal, intermolecular O—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds connect the components into chains along [010]. The crystal structure is further stabilized by π–π stacking interactions with centroid–centroid distances of 3.7730 (12) Å.
