2-Methyl-5-(4-tol­yl)-7-(trifluoro­meth­yl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine

In the title compound, C15H12F3N3, the pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine system ring is essentially planar with a maximum deviation from the mean plane of 0.014 (1) Å. The 4-tolyl group makes a dihedral angle of 14.1 (1)° with the pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine ring system. The crystal packing is stabilized mainly by van der Waals forces
