N-[3-(2-Methyl­phen­yl)isoquinolin-1-yl]formamide

Abstract

The title compound, C17H14N2O, crystallizes as a cis formamide isomer. The isoquinoline and benzene fragments are nearly perpendicular [dihedral angle = 81.79 (18)°], whereas the formamide group is virtually coplanar with the isoquinoline unit [dihedral angle = 1.66 (15)°]. Inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link mol­ecules into a centrosymmetric dimer
