Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of N-(tert-but­yl)-2-(phenyl­ethyn­yl)imidazo12-apyridin-3-amine

摘要

The bicyclic imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine core of the title compound, C19H19N3, is relatively planar with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.040 Å. The phenyl ring is inclined to the mean plane of the imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine unit by 18.2 (1)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by N—H⋯H hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the c-axis direction. The chains are linked by C—H⋯π inter­actions, forming slabs parallel to the ac plane. The Hirshfeld surface analysis and fingerprint plots reveal that the crystal structure is dominated by H⋯H (54%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (35.6%) contacts. The crystal studied was refined as an inversion twin
