The title ester, C27H30N2O3, crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit whose geometrical features are similar. In each mol-ecule, the pyrrolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation, with the fused C atom shared with the piperidine ring as the flap, and the piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation. In the crystal, C-H⋯π inter-actions link the inversion-related molecules and form a dimeric arrangement in the unit cell.
