Abstract

In the title compound, C(26)H(27)BrN(2)O, the piperidine ring has a chair conformation and all ring substituents occupy equatorial positions, apart from the double-bonded N atom, which occupies a bis-ectional position. The dihedral angle formed between the phenyl rings is 61.18 (19)°, and the phenyl rings form dihedral angles of 49.78 (19) and 69.2 (18)° with the bromo-benzene ring. The latter is coplanar with the meth-oxy(methyl-idene)amine fragment [N-O-C-C torsion angle = -171.7 (2)°]. Linear supra-molecular chains, approximately along [112], sustained by C-H⋯π inter-actions, feature in the crystal packing.
