8-Methoxy-2-methylquinoline

Abstract

In the title crystal structure, C11H11NO, there are two independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. In one of the mol­ecules, the dihedral angle between the two six-membered rings of the quinoline system is 1.43 (9)° and in the other mol­ecule the angle is 0.74 (1)°. In both mol­ecules, the meth­oxy group in essentially coplanar with the quinoline group, with C—O—C—C torsion angles of 3.3 (3) and 3.1 (3)°.
