Structural Characterization of 11-Ethyl-6,11-Dihydro-5H-Dibenzo[b,e]Azepine

The title compound C 16 H 17 N, a potential pharmaceutical agent, crystallizes in the monoclinic P 2 1/ n space group with unit cell parameters a = 9.911(7) Å, b = 5.542(3) Å, c = 23.245(16) Å, β = 96.25(2)°. The dibenzazepine ring adopts a twist-boat conformation. The crystal packing is entirely dominated by cohesive weak N–H⋯Cg(π) and Cg(π)⋯Cg(π) interactions among the neighboring molecules producing an efficient packing with 66.4% of the occupied space.
