title: 2-Anilino-5,7-dimethyl-pyrazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carbonitrile.
abstract: The title compound, C(15)H(13)N(5), crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The mol-ecular conformations are stabilized by C-H⋯N contacts forming S(6) ring motifs. In the crystal, pairs of mol-ecules are connected into R(2) (2)(12) dimers by N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds. C-H⋯π inter-actions and π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid distances = 3.6085 (8), 3.6657 (8), 3.4745 (8) and 3.5059 (8) Å] also also observed.
