(4aR*,8aS*)-2,3-Diphenyl-4a,5,6,7,8,8a-hexahydroquinoxaline
Abstract
In the title compound, C20H20N2, the quinoxaline ring adopts a very distorted half-chair conformation [N=C—C=N = 22.7 (2)° for the nominally coplanar atoms] and the cyclohexane ring adopts a chair conformation. The quinoxaline and cyclohexane rings are cis-fused. The two phenyl rings form a dihedral angle of 63.88 (7)°.
