Abstract

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C(16)H(13)NO(2), adjacent mol-ecules are linked through C-H⋯π and π-π [centroid-centroid distances = 3.844 (2) Å] contacts. The anthracene ring system and dimethyl-amino group are oriented at a dihedral angle of 38.4 (1)°. In the crystal, the mean planes of adjacent anthracene units are inclined at angles of 59.3 (1), 75.7 (1) and 76.0 (1)°.
