Crystal Structure of 6-Methyl-4-[(quinolin-8-yloxy)methyl]-2H-chromen-2-one

Abstract

The title compound, 6-methyl-4-[(quinolin-8-yloxy)methyl]-2H-chromen-2-one, crystallizes under a monoclinic system with space group P2₁/c. The unit cell parameters are a = 7.4641(2), b = 12.1483(3) c = 17.1084(4)Å, β = 99.667(1), Z = 4. The molecule is almost planar and the quinoline ring makes a dihedral angle of 2.86(3)° with the coumarin moiety. The molecules are stabilized by intermolecular C-H…O, C-H…π and π…π stacking interactions in the solid state.
