title: 3,5-Dimeth-oxy-4'-methyl-biphen-yl.
abstract: The title compound, C15H16O2, crystallizes with three independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The intra-molecular torsion angle between the aromatic rings of each mol-ecule are -36.4 (3), 41.3 (3) and -37.8 (3)°. In the crystal, the complicated packing of the mol-ecules forms wave-like layers along the b and c axes. The mol-ecules are connected via extensive meth-oxy-phenyl C-H⋯π inter-actions. A weak C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding network also exists between meth-oxy O atoms and aromatic or meth-oxy H atoms.
