(E)-(2,5-Difluorobenzyl)[(2-ethoxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylidene]amine

Abstract

In the title molecule, C20H17F2NO, which adopts an E conformation with respect to the imine C=N double bond, the mean planes of the naphthalene ring system and the difluorophenyl ring form a dihedral angle of 85.82 (7)°. An intramolecular C - H?N hydrogen bond occurs. In the crystal, weak C - H?F hydrogen bonds link the molecules into zigzag chains along [010]. © 2013 Pekdemir et al.
