title: (2E)-3-(4-Methyl-phen-yl)-1-(2-methyl-4-phenyl-quinolin-3-yl)prop-2-en-1-one monohydrate.
abstract: The title hydrate, C(26)H(21)NO·H(2)O, exhibits significant twists of the benzene ring [dihedral angle = 87.24 (6)°] and chalcone residue [C-C-C-C torsion angle = -94.46 (17)°] out of the plane through the quinoline ring system. The conformation about the C=C bond [1.341 (2) Å] is E. The solvent water mol-ecule forms hydrogen bonds to carbonyl O and quinoline N atoms derived from two mol-ecules and through the application of a centre of inversion, a 16-membered {⋯HOH⋯OC(3)N}(2) synthon is formed to stabilize the resulting tetra-meric (two organic mol-ecules plus two water mol-ecules) aggregate. These are connected into a two-dimensional array via two C-H⋯O contacts, also involving the water mol-ecule. The layers stack along the c axis, being linked by C-H⋯π inter-actions.
