title: 1-Chloro-acetyl-3,3-dimethyl-2,6-di-phenyl-piperidin-4-one.
abstract: In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(21)H(22)ClNO(2), the piperidine ring adopts a distorted boat conformation. The two phenyl rings are nearly orthogonal to each other with a dihedral angle of 87.1 (1)°. In the crystal structure, the mol-ecules are linked into a three-dimensional network by C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π inter-actions.
