Abstract

In the title compound C20H13N5, the dihedral angle between the carbazole ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.027 Å) and the pendant benzene ring is 55.08 (6)°. One of the azide N atoms is disordered over two positions in a 0.65 (2):0.35 (2) ratio. In the crystal, aromatic π-π stacking is observed [minimum centroid-centroid separation = 3.6499 (13) Å] as well as inversion-dimers connected by pairs of weak C-H⋯π inter-actions.
