Abstract
In the title molecule, C12H12N4S, the thiophene ring is disordered over two orientations with a refined site-occupancy ratio of 0.777 (4):0.223 (4). The pyrazolopyridine ring system is essentially planar with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0069 (3) Å and makes dihedral angles of 82.8 (2) and 72.6 (5)°, respectively, with the major and minor components of the thiophene ring. In the crystal, molecules are linked into a chain along the a axis by a pair of N—H...N(pyrazole) hydrogen bonds and a pair of N—H...N(pyridine) hydrogen bonds, both having a centrosymmetric R22(8) graph-set motif. A C—H...π interaction is also present.
