Description:
In the title compound, C20H20O2, the exocyclic C=C double bond has an E conformation. The ethyl substituent on the cyclohexanone ring is in an axial orientation. The cyclohexanone ring adopts a screw-boat conformation, with the methylene C atom and the C atom bearing the 4-methoxybenzylidene group displaced from the other atoms by 0.812 (1) and 0.334 (1) Å, respectively. The dihedral angle between the planes of the benzene rings is 42.20 (8)°. In the crystal, no directional interactions beyond van der Waals contacts are observed.
