(E)-2-[(Furan-2-yl)methyl-idene]-7-methyl-2,3,4,9-tetra-hydro-1H-carbazol-1-one.

ABSTRACT

In the title mol-ecule, C(18)H(15)NO(2), the atoms in the carbazole unit deviate from planarity [maximum deviation from mean plane = 0.1317 (12) Å]. The pyrrole ring makes dihedral angles of 1.01 (8) and 18.56 (10)° with the benzene and furan rings, respectively. The cyclo-hexene ring adopts a half-chair conformation. In the crystal, pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds form an R(2) (2)(10) ring. Mol-ecules are further linked by C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π inter-actions, forming a three-dimensional network.
