6,7-Dimethoxy-2,4-diphenylquinoline

Abstract

In the title structure of the title compound, C23H19NO2, two conformationally similar molecules (A and B) comprise the asymmetric unit. The dihedral angle between phenyl rings bridged by the quinoline moiety are 76.25 (8)° in molecule A and 70.39 (9)° in molecule B. In the crystal, the independent molecules are connected by C—H...O hydrogen bonds and the resulting dimeric aggregates are linked by π–π [inter-centroid distance = 3.7370 (8) Å] and C—H...π interactions, forming a three-dimensional architecture.
