title: (Z)-3-(4-Methoxy-anilino)-1-phenyl-but-2-en-1-one.
abstract: In the title compound, C(17)H(17)NO(2), the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 6.9 (1)°. The meth-oxy group is twisted slightly away from the aniline ring [C-O-C-C = 12.2 (3)°]. An intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond generating an S(6) ring is observed. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π inter-actions, forming a two-dimensional network.
