Ethyl 3,4-dimethyl-5-[(E)-(phenylimino)methyl]-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylate

In the title compound, C16H18N2O2, the molecule adopts an E conformation about the C=N double bond. The dihedral angle between the pyrrole and phenyl rings is 41.55 (8)°. In the crystal structure, pairs of intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into centrosymmetric dimers. In the dimer, the two pyrrole rings are almost coplanar and the two phenyl rings are parallel to each other
