Abstract

In the title compound, C32H28N2O2, the pyrrolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation, whereas the cyclo­hexa­none ring in the tetra­hydro­naphthalene fused-ring system adopts a half-chair conformation. The oxindole ring system is oriented at an angle of 48.2 (1)° with respect to the naphthyl ring system. An intra­molecular C—H⋯O close contact is observed. In the crystal, mol­ecules associate via two C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming R22(14) and R22(10) dimers.
