title: Crystal structure of (E)-N-[(2-meth-oxy-naphthalen-1-yl)methyl-idene]-3-nitro-aniline.
abstract: In the title compound, C18H14N2O3, the dihedral angle between the naphthalene ring system and the benzene ring is 59.99 (13)°. A short intra-molecular C-H⋯N contact closes an S(6) ring. The nitro group is disordered over two orientations in a statistical ratio. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and very weak π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid separation = 3.9168 (17) Å] are observed.
