A. Bazgir and A. M. Astaraki

Abstract: In the molecule of the title compound, C₂₁H₂₀ClN, the quinoline group is nearly planar and is oriented at a dihedral angle of 77.21 (3)° with respect to the phenyl ring. The conformation of the cyclooctane ring is twist-boat. In the crystal structure, there are some weak - interactions [centroid-to-centroid distances of 3.7414 (11) and 3.8633 (12) Å] between the rings of the quinoline groups.
