Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (3Z)-7-meth­oxy-3-(2-phenyl­hydrazinyl­idene)-1-benzo­furan-2(3H)-one

In the title compound, C(15)H(12)N(2)O(3), pairs of mol­ecules are linked into dimers by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming an R (2) (2)(12) ring motif, with the dimers stacked along the a axis. These dimers are connected through π–π stacking inter­actions between the centroids of the benzene and furan rings of their 2,3-di­hydro-1-benzo­furan ring systems. Furthermore, there exists a C—H⋯π inter­action that consolidates the crystal packing. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contacts are H⋯H (40.7%), O⋯H/H⋯O (24.7%), C⋯H/H⋯C (16.1%) and C⋯C (8.8%).
