2-[2-(4-Methylpiperazin-1-yl)ethyl]isoindoline-1,3-dione

Abstract

In the title compound, C15H19N3O2, the piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation, with its N—C bonds in pseudo-equatorial orientations. The dihedral angle between the C atoms of the piperazine ring and the phthalamide ring system (r.m.s. deviaiton = 0.008 Å) is 89.30 (8)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds, generating a three-dimensional network and aromatic π–π interactions also occur [centroid–centroid distances = 3.556 (1)–3.716 (1) Å].
