Abstract

The quinoxaline portion of the title mol-ecule, C21H19N5O3, is not quite planar as indicated by a dihedral angle of 3.38 (7)° between the constituent rings. The mol-ecule is 'U-shaped', which is consolidated by an intra-molecular anti-parallel carbonyl electrostatic inter-action with C··O distances of 2.8905 (16) and 3.0221 (15) Å, in the crystal forms corrugated layers through C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds and C-H⋯π(ring) and π-stacking inter-actions.

Keywords: crystal structure; hydrogen bond; quinoxaline; triazole; π-stacking.
