Abstract

In the title compound, C(35)H(47)ClN(4)O, the two pyrrolidine rings have envelope conformations. The conformation of the macrocycle is stabilized by N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds and a C-H⋯N inter-action. The benzoyl ring is inclined to the adjacent pyrrole ring by 11.66 (11)°, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.7488 (13) Å. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into helical chains propagating in [010] and C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π interactions are also observed.
