Abstract :
The title compound, C13H16ClNO, contains a methylpiperidine ring in the stable chair conformation. The mean plane of the twisted piperidine ring subtends a dihedral angle of 39.89 (7)° with that of the benzene ring. In the crystal, weak C—H⋯O interactions link the molecules along the a-axis direction to form infinite molecular chains. H⋯H interatomic interactions, C—H⋯O intermolecular interactions and weak dispersive forces stabilize molecular packing and form a supramolecular network, as established by Hirshfeld surface analysis.
