Crystal structure and DFT study of (E)-N-[2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl]-1-(anthracen-9-yl)methanimine

The title compound, C25H20N2, (I), was synthesized from the condensation reaction of anthracene-9-carbaldehyde and tryptamine in dry ethanol. The indole ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.016 Å) makes a dihedral angle of 63.56 (8)° with the anthracene ring (r.m.s. deviation = 0.023 Å). There is a sho...
