(E)-3-(4-Bromo-phen-yl)-3-[3-(4-bromo-phen-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]prop-2-enal
Abstract:
There are two crystallographically independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(18)H(12)Br(2)N(2)O. In each mol-ecule, one of the bromo-phenyl rings lies almost in the plane of pyrazole unit [dihedral angles of 5.8 (3)° in the first mol-ecule and and 5.1 (3)° in the second] while the other ring is approximately perpendicular to it [dihedral angles of 80.3 (3) and 76.5 (3)°]. The crystal packing shows inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions. The crystal studied was a racemic twin.

Aromatic ring substitutions: Substituting the aromatic ring with –OH groups at positions 3 and 4 yields catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine), which have a high affinity for adrenoceptors. Hydrogen bonding between –OH groups and receptors enhances adrenergic activity.
