9-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-9H-carbazole

Abstract

In the title compound, C19H15NO, the dihedral angle between the benzene rings of the carbazole moiety is 1.73 (12)° and the methoxy-substituted phenyl ring deviates from the mean plane of the carbazole grouping (r.m.s. deviation = 0.020 Å) by 56.78 (8)°. In the crystal, weak C—H...π interactions link the molecules. The two-dimensional fingerprint plots derived from the Hirshfeld surface indicate that H...H (51.2%) and C...H/H...C (39.9%) contacts dominate the packing.
