4-(2-Fluoro-phen-yl)-2-meth-oxy-5,6,7,8,9,10-hexa-hydro-cyclo-octa-[b]pyridine-3-carbo-nitrile

In the title compound, C19H19FN2O, the cyclo-octene ring adopts a twisted boat-chair conformation. The dihedral angle between the plane of the fluorophenyl substituent and that of the pyridine ring is 76.39 (8)°. The F and ortho-H atoms of the fluoro-benzene ring are disordered, with occupancy factors of 0.226 (5) and 0.774 (5). In the crystal, no significant inter-actions are observed between the mol-ecules beyond van der Waals contacts.
