title: (Z)-2-(3-methoxybenzylidene)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-3-one.
abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, C(15)H(17)NO(2), contains two nearly identical but crystallographically independent molecules, each with a double bond connecting an azabicyclic ring system to a 3-methoxybenzylidene moiety. The space group is triclinic P-1. The benzene ring is twisted by 18.44 (5) and 22.35 (4) degrees with respect to the plane of the double bond connected to the azabicyclic ring system for the two molecules. In addition to C-H...pi interactions, molecules are held together in the solid state by van der Waals interactions.
