N,N-Dimethyl-4-[(E)-2-(3,6,7-tribromo-9-butyl-9H-carbazol-2-yl)ethenyl]aniline

Abstract

In the title molecule, C26H25Br3N2, a dihedral angle of 6.15 (10)° is present between the carbazole and benzene ring systems with an E conformation about the C=C bond [1.335 (4) Å]. The butyl group is almost perpendicular to the carbazole plane [C—N—C—C torsion angle = −98.7 (3)°]. In the crystal, supramolecular double chains along [-7,18,-16] are formed via C—H...Br and π–π interactions [centroid(carbazole five-membered ring)...centroid(carbazole six-membered ring) distance = 3.6333 (13) Å].
