AbstractThe title compound, C21H13N3O, crystallizes with two independent molecules with similar conformations per asymmetric unit. The dihydrofuran rings are essentially planar with maximum deviations of 0.017 (1) and 0.006 (1) Å for the O atoms. The dihedral angles between the dihydrofuran ring and the attached phenyl rings are 79.90 (6) and 82.07 (6)° in one molecule and 79.36 (6) and 72.26 (6)° in the other. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by weak C - H⋯π and C - H⋯N interactions similar to those in other closely related crystals. The replacement of appended methyl by phenyl groups has not significantly affected the dihydrofuran ring structure or the crystal packing interactions. © 2013 Bhuiyan et al.
