2-[3,5-Bis(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-4,5-di-hydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]-4,6-bis-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)pyrimidine
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(35)H(32)N(4)O(4), the pyrazole ring forms a dihedral angle of 15.04 (8)° with the adjacent pyrimidine ring. The pyrimidine ring forms dihedral angles of 9.95 (8) and 1.86 (7)° with its adjacent meth-oxy-substituted benzene rings, whereas the equivalent angles are 80.24 (9) and 11.55 (9)° for the pyrazole ring and its adjacent benzene rings. The crystal packing features π-π inter-actions, the centroid-centroid distance between the pyrimidine and methoxyphenyl rings being 3.604 (1) Å. The pyrazole ring is nearly planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.020 (3) Å for the -CH(2)- carbon.

Phase II Reactions: Methylation Reactions
The mechanism of methylation unfolds in two stages. The first stage sees a methyltransferase enzyme facilitating the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) to the substrate, forming S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH). The second stage involves further metabolism of SAH into homocysteine, which can be recycled...
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.
As with other organic compounds, alcohols and phenols...
Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
