The N1A–H1AA⋯O4A, C4–H4⋯O3, and C14–H14⋯Cg1 (Ring: C8–C13) interactions link the molecules into dimers, while the interaction C9-H9–O2 results in the formation of a molecular chain along the <i>a</i>-axis. The optimized structural geometry, by and large, as calculated using DFT and HF techniques is in conformity with the corresponding X-ray data. The DFT computation further aid in the follow up investigations including frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs), density of states (DOS), atomic charges, and molecular electrostatic potential surface (MEP).
