Abstract
In the quinoline fused-ring system of the title compound, C9H9NO, the pyridine ring is planar to within 0.011 (3) Å, while the partially saturated cyclohexene ring adopts a sofa conformation with an asymmetry parameter ΔCs(C6) = 1.5 (4)°. There are no classical hydrogen bonds in the crystal structure. Molecules form molecular layers parallel to (100) with a distance between the layers of a/2 = 3.468 Å.
Partial Text
The title compound is an intermediate for the synthesis of polyheterocycles giving photoluminescence (Kelly & Lebedev, 2002 ▶) and a key substrate to synthesis of its 8-amino substituted derivatives with pharmacological activity (e.g. Gudmundsson et al., 2009) ▶.
