Abstract
C15H11NO2, Mr 237.3, monoclinic, space groupC c, a=8.539(2),b=19.865(4),c=7.599(2)Å,β=111.44(2)°,V=1199.8 Å3,Z=4,D c=1.31 gcm−3,λ(CuKα)=1.5418 Å,µ=6.74cm−1,F(000)=496, room temperature. The structure was solved by direct methods with SHELX-86 and refined down to agreement valueR=0.046 for 1117 reflections above 2σ(I). The angle between the plane of the phthalimide group, which shows a little bent [1.2(2)°] between its two rings, and the tolyl group is 56.1(1)°. The packing of the molecules is stabilized by van der Waal’s forces only.
