(2E)-2-Benzylidene-9-phenyl-3,4-dihydroacridin-1(2H)-one

Abstract

In the title compound, C26H19NO, the plane of the aromatic heterocycle makes a dihedral angle of 75.22 (4)° with that of the attached phenyl ring. In the crystal, molecules are connected by C—H...O interactions, generatingR22(12) dimers. These dimers are further connected by C—H...π interactions, linking the molecules into chains running along thea-axis direction.
