Dimethyl 2-[(acridin-9-yl)methyl-idene]malonate.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C(19)H(15)NO(4), the acridine system is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.015?Å). The crystal packing exhibits ?-? inter-actions between pairs of centrosymmetric mol-ecules, one of them between the central heterocyclic rings and others between the outer benzene rings of the acridine systems, with centroid-centroid distances of 3.692?(1) and 3.754?(1)?Å, respectively. These pairs are further linked by additional ?-? inter-actions along the a-axis direction through one of the two outer benzene ring of neighboring mol-ecules, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.642?(2)?Å.
