RESUMO
The title compound, C(18)H(12)N(2)O, comprises two aromatic fragments, viz., imidazo[2,1-a]isoquinoline and benzene, linked by oxygen and methyl-ene bridges. Despite the absence of a common conjugative system within the mol-ecule, it adopts an essentially planar conformation with an r.m.s. deviation of 0. 036â Å. In the crystal, due to this structure, mol-ecules form stacks along the b axis by πâ¯π stacking inter-actions, with shortest Câ¯C distances in the range 3.340â (4)-3.510â (4)â Å. The mol-ecules are bound by inter-molecular C-Hâ¯O inter-actions within the stacks and C-Hâ¯π inter-actions between the stacks.
