Abstract
In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(23)H(17)N(3)O(2), the methoxy-phenyl ring is oriented at dihedral angles of 13.34 (12) and 88.83 (12)° with respect to the methyl-phenyl and phthalonitrile rings, respectively; the dihedral angle between methyl-phenyl and phthalonitrile rings is 89.67 (10)°. In the crystal structure, weak inter-molecular C-H⋯N inter-actions link mol-ecules into chains. A weak C-H⋯π inter-action is also found..
