Ethyl 3-(10-bromo­anthracen-9-yl)-5-methyl-1,2-oxazole-4-carboxyl­ate

In the title compound, C₂₁H₁₆BrNO₃, the mean planes of the anthracene tricycle and isoxazole ring are inclined to each other at a dihedral angle of 72.12 (7)°. The carb­oxy group is slightly out of the isoxazole mean plane, with a maximum deviation of 0.070 (5) Å for the carbonyl O atom. In the crystal, pairs of weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into dimers, and weak C—H...N inter­actions further link these dimers into corrugated layers parallel to the bc plane.
