Abstract
In the title compound, C19H22N2O2, the morpholine ring adopts an almost perfect normal chair conformation with puckering parameters QT, θ and ϕ of 0.5642 (18) Å, 177.32 (17) and ϕ = 10 (4)°, respectively. The two benzene rings make a dihedral angle of 42.67 (8)° with each other. An intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond helps to stabilize the molecular conformation. Aromatic C—H...π interactions and π–π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.6155 (15) Å] between the benzene rings contribute to the stabilization of the crystal structure.
