Abstract
In the title compound, C20H15N, the fluorene unit is essentially planar [r.m.s. deviation 0.0334 Å] and the benzene ring bound to the imine N atom bears a methyl group which is nearly coplanar [dihedral angle 0.5 (1)°]. The dihedral angle between the substituent benzene ring and the 9H-fluoren-9-imine unit is 71.1 (3)°. Intermolecular π–π interactions between the benzene rings of adjacent fluorene units [centroid–centroid distance 3.8081 (13) Å] are present in the crystal structure, resulting in a one-dimensional supramolecular architecture.
