4-(3,4-Dimethyl-5-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-yl)-2-methoxyphenol
Abstract
In the title compound, C18H21NO3, the oxazolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation with the N atom at the flap position. The two benzene rings make dihedral angles of 74.27 (14) and 73.26 (15)° with the mean plane through the oxazolidine ring. In the crystal structure, O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds connect adjacent molecules into chains along [010] incorporating R22(8) loops and further stabilization is provided by weak intermolecular C—H...π interactions.
