Methyl ({[(4E)-1,3-dimethyl-2,6-diphenylpiperidin-4-ylidene]amino}oxy) acetate

Abstract

In the title compound, C22H26N2O3, the piperidine ring exhibits a chair conformation. The phenyl rings attached to the piperidine at the 2- and 6-positions have axial orientations. These rings make a dihedral angle of 49.75(11)°. The aminooxy acetate group attached at the 4-position has an equatorial orientation. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of C - H⋯π interactions occur. © 2014 CrossMark.
