Crystal structure of (E)-N-(3,4-dimethoxybenzylidene)morpholin-4-amine

Abstract

In the title compound, C13H18N2O3, the benzene ring makes a dihedral angle of 17.19 (11)° with the least-squares plane formed by the four C atoms of the morpholine ring, which adopts a chair conformation. In the crystal, C—H...N hydrogen bonds link the molecules into supramolecular chains running along a 21 screw axis parallel to the b-axis direction. Weak C—H...π interactions are also observed.
