Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (2E)-1-phenyl-3-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)propen-1-one

The title compound, C13H11NO, adopts an E configuration about the C = C double bond. The pyrrole ring is inclined to the phenyl ring at an angle of 44.94 (8)degrees. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds, forming ribbons parallel to (020) in zigzag C(7) chains along the a axis. These ribbons are connected via C-H center dot center dot center dot pi interactions, forming a three-dimensional network. No significant pi-pi interactions are observed.
