Ethyl 2-[6-(4-methyl­benzo­yl)-7-phenyl-2,3-di­hydro-1H-pyrrolizin-5-yl]-2-oxo­acetate

In the title compound, C₂₅H₂₃NO₄, the pyrrolizine ring is approximately planar with an r.m.s deviation from planarity of 0.0053 Å, while the fused di­hydro­pyrrolizine ring adopts an envelope conformation with the C atom connected to two CH₂ as the flap. The dihedral angles between the fused ring system and the phenyl and methyl­benzoyl rings are 41.65 (11) and 66.30 (8)°, respectively. In the crystal, weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds and C—H...π inter­actions occur. One mol­ecule is linked to five adjacent ones through eight hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.
