Abstract

The title compound, C27H37N, which is intended to be included in the structure of a sulfon­amide porphyrin for the preparation of Langmuir–Blodgett films, consists of a do­decyl chain linked to an anthracene mol­ecule through an amino­methyl group. The angle between the least-squares plane of the anthracene and the do­decyl chain is 11.44 (8)°. The mol­ecules are arranged in zigzag layers head-to-head, with the hydro­carbon chains side-by-side. The structure is stabilized by C—H⃛π interactions, the strongest having an H⃛centroid distance of 2.63 Å.
