The title compound, C(17)H(15)NO(2), was prepared from 1-hydroxy-carbazole and 3,3-dimethyl-acrylic acid with a mixture of AlCl(3) and POCl(3) as the cyclization catalyst. Owing to the presence of the -CMe(2)- group, the mol-ecule is not quite planar. In the crystal structre, strong N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and weaker C-H⋯π inter-actions occur, and a slipped π-π stacking inter-action [centroid-centroid separation = 3.8425 (8) Å] is also observed. ...[more]
