Abstract:
In the title compound, C35H31N3O5S, the piperidine ring adopts an envelope conformation, with the methine C atom as the flap, and the pyran ring adopts a sofa conformation. The mean planes of these two rings are almost normal to one another, making a dihedral angle of 85.96 (5)°. The two phenyl rings, one attached to the pyrazole ring and the other to the pyran ring, are inclined to one another by 65.41 (11)°. They are inclined to the mean planes of the rings to which they are attached by 12.59 (11) and 70.09 (9)°, respectively. There is an intra-molecular C-H⋯π inter-action involving the tosyl-ate methyl group and the phenyl ring attached to the pyrazole ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯π inter-actions, forming ribbons parallel to (10-2). The ribbons are linked by slipped parallel π-π inter-actions involving inversion-related pyrazole rings [inter-centroid distance = 3.672 (2) Å], forming slabs parallel to (001). A preliminary report of this structure has been published [Bakthadoss et al. (2014 ▶). Eur. J. Org. Chem. pp. 1505-1513].

Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Carboxylic acid derivatives contain an acyl group attached to a heteroatom such as chlorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. The carbonyl carbon and oxygen are both sp2-hybridized with an unhybridized p orbital.
The three sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl carbon form three σ bonds, one each with the carbonyl oxygen, the α carbon, and the heteroatom, whereas the other two sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl oxygen are occupied by the lone pairs. Further, the...
