Abstract: In the title compound, C₁₆H₁₇N₃O, the benzotriazole ring forms a dihedral angle of 77.25 (6)° with the phenyl ring. The benzotriazole ring is essentially planar with a maximum deviation of 0.012 (19) Å. Weak intermolecular C-HO hydrogen bonds form R₂²(10) motifs. The crystal packing is consolidated by - interactions with centroid-centroid distances of 3.5994 (12) Å together with very weak C-H interactions.
