2,3-Dimethyl-N-[(E)-4-nitrobenzylidene]aniline

Abstract

In the title compound, C15H14N2O2, the aromatic rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 24.52 (5)°. The dihedral angle between the nitro group and its parent benzene ring is 9.22 (16)°. In the crystal, molecules interact through aromatic π—π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid separations = 3.8158 (14) and 3.9139 (14) Å].
