Abstract:
In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(19)H(22)N(2)O(2), the pyrazolidinone ring has an envelope conformation, with the C atom attached to the 4-methoxy-phenyl ring displaced by 0.354 (3) Å from the plane of the other ring atoms. The 4-iso-propyl-phenyl ring is oriented with respect to the 4-meth-oxy-phenyl ring at a dihedral angle of 88.94 (3)°. Intra-molecular C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds result in the formation of two planar five-membered rings, which are oriented with respect to the adjacent 4-isopropyl-phenyl and 4-meth-oxy-phenyl rings at dihedral angles of 4.05 (3) and 0.50 (3)°, respectively. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into centrosymmetric dimers.

Structure and Nomenclature of Alcohols and Phenols
Alcohols are one of the most important functional groups in organic chemistry. The name of alcohol comes from the hydrocarbon from which it is derived. Alcohols are organic molecules containing the functional hydroxyl or –OH group directly bonded to carbon. Phenols have an OH group directly attached to a benzene ring. While alcohols are colorless, phenol is a white crystalline compound with a characteristic "hospital smell" odor.
