At 100 K, the title compound, C13H12N2O2, crystallizes in the ortho-rhom-bic space group Pna21 with two very similar mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. An intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond leads to an S(6) graph-set motif in each of the mol-ecules. Inter-molecular π-π stacking and C=O⋯π inter-actions involving the aldehyde O atoms link mol-ecules into stacks parallel to [100]. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing stem from H⋯H (49.4%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (21.5%) inter-actions. Energy framework calculations reveal a significant contribution of dispersion energy. The crystal studied was refined as a two-component inversion twin.
Keywords: Hirshfeld surface analysis; Tricyclic quinazoline derivative; crystal structure; energy frameworks; intramolecular N—H⋯O bond; π–π interactions.
