Publication Abstract

In the title compound, C₁₉H₂₁ClN₂O₂, the aromatic rings are approximately perpendicular to each other, subtending a dihedral angle of 87.7 (1)°. In the crystal, the 4-nitrophenyl groups of pairs of neighbouring molecules are parallel and oriented head-to-tail with a ring centroid-centroid distance of 3.9247 (12) Å, leading to a - interaction between the pair. The faces of each phenyl ring of the 2,6-diisopropylphenyl group interact with two different groups, viz. a chloro group of an adjacent molecule on one side and the edge of the 4-nitrophenyl ring of a second molecule on the other side.
