3-Phenyl-1-(pyrrol-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one

Abstract

The title mol-ecule, C13H11NO, is almost flat, the angle between the pyrrole and the phenyl rings being 10.9 (1)°. The atoms of the central C3O unit are coplanar, with a mean deviation from the plane of 0.001 (1) Å. The angles between this plane and the pyrrole and phenyl rings are 3.3 (1) and 8.0 (1)°, respectively. The mol-ecules form centrosymmetric dimers through a pair of N - H⋯O hydrogen bonds with an R 2 2(10) motif. © International Union of Crystallography 2008.
