Abstract
The title compound, C20H18ClN3O3, is in an enamine–keto form, stabilized by two strong intramolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The pyrazole ring is oriented at dihedral angles of 4.13 (3) and 85.60 (3)° with respect to the aromatic rings. The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 81.79 (3)°. In the crystal structure, intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into double chains, which are further linked by weak C—H⋯π interactions, forming a two-dimensional network.
