(2E)-3-(6-Chloro-2-meth­oxy­quinolin-3-yl)-1-(2,4-di­methyl­quinolin-3-yl)prop-2-en-1-one

The mol­ecule of the title compound, C(24)H(19)ClN(2)O(2), is bent, with the dihedral angle between the terminal quinoline ring systems being 63.30 (5)°. The quinolinyl residues are connected by an almost planar prop-2-en-1-one bridge (r.m.s. deviation = 0.022 Å), with the dihedral angles between this plane and the appended quinolinyl residues being 75.86 (7) and 38.54 (7)°. The C atom of the meth­oxy group is close to coplanar with its attached ring [deviation = 0.116 (2) Å]. In the crystal, a three-dimensional architecture is constructed by meth­yl–carbonyl C—H⋯O inter­actions and π–π inter­actions between centrosymmetrically related quinolinyl residues [centroid-to-centroid separations 3.5341 (10) and 3.8719 (9) Å].
