Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and DFT study of N-(2-amino-5-methyl-phen-yl)-2-(5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)acetamide.

The title mol-ecule, C(13)H(16)N(4)O, adopts an angular conformation. In the crystal a layer structure is generated by N-H⋯O and N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds together with C-H⋯π(ring) inter-actions. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (53.8%), H⋯C/C⋯H (21.7%), H⋯N/N⋯H (13.6%), and H⋯O/O⋯H (10.8%) inter-actions. The optimized structure calculated using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/ 6-311†G(d,p) level is compared with the experimentally determined structure in the solid state. The calculated HOMO-LUMO energy gap is 5.0452†eV.
