Ethyl 4-anilino-2,6-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-1-phenyl-1,2,5,6- tetrahydropyridine-3-carboxylate

Abstract

In the title compound, C32H28F2N2O2, the tetrahydropyridine ring adopts a distorted boat conformation. The two fluorophenyl groups are attached to the tetrahydropyridine ring in a trans orientation. The dihedral angle between the planes of the fluoro-substituted rings is 57.0 (1)°. The amino group and carbonyl O atom are involved in intramolecular hydrogen bonding. In the crystal, weak C - H⋯O, C - H⋯F and C - H⋯π interactions link the molecules into columns along [010].
