title: Ethyl anthracene-9-carboxyl-ate.
abstract: In the title compound, C(17)H(14)O(2), the COO group and the anthracene fragment form a dihedral angle of 76.00 (19)°. The torsion angle around the O-Csp(3) bond of the ester group is 108.52 (18)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by C-H⋯O inter-actions and edge-to-face arene inter-actions with C-H⋯(ring centroid) distances in the range 2.75-2.84 Å.
