1-(4-Chlorophenacyl)-4-methyl-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-cyclohepta[b]pyridin-2(1H)-one
Abstract
In the pyridone ring of the title compound, C19H20ClNO2, single and double bonds alternate, though allowing some degree of conjugation. One C atom in the cycloheptene ring is disordered over two positions, which form boat and chair conformations of cycloheptene, respectively.
