Abstract

In the nearly planar title compound (r.m.s. deviation for the 24 non-H atoms = 0.064 Å), C₁₈H₁₆ClN₃O₂, the conformation about the N=C bond is E. Supra­molecular chains propagated by glide symmetry along [001] are found in the crystal packing. These are sustained by N-HN hydrogen bonds with the quinoline N atom being the acceptor. The chains are connected into a three-dimensional architecture by – inter­actions involving all three aromatic rings [centroid-centroid distances = 3.5650 (9)-3.6264 (9) Å].
