2,2,7,7-Tetra-methyl-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octa-hydro-acridine-1,8-dione.

ABSTRACT: The whole molecule of the title compound, C17H21NO2, is generated by twofold rotational symmetry. The N atom and the C and H atoms in position 4 of the pyridine ring lie on the twofold axis. The cyclohexene ring has a sofa conformation with the CH2 C atom adjacent to the dimethyl-substituted C atom displaced by 0.5949 (16) Å from the mean plane of the other five C atoms. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯O inter-actions link the mol-ecules into chains parallel to the a axis. In addition, π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid distance = 3.8444 (7) Å] contribute to the stabilization of the crystal structure.
