In the title compound, C16H17NO2, the isoxazole ring makes a dihedral angle of 14.81 (13)° with the 4-methoxyphenyl ring. Two atoms of the cyclohexene ring are disordered over two almost equally occupied positions [0.526 (13)/0.474 (13)]. The molecular structure features a short intramolecular C-H...O contact.
