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].Keywords: None Document Type: Research Article DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S1600536812012871 Publication date: 1 de Janeiro de 2012
