In the title compound, C18H14ClNO, the quinoline ring system is approximately planar with a maximum devation of 0.022 (1) Å and forms a dihedral angle of 62.70 (3)° with the phenyl ring. In the crystal, pairs of C- H⋯O inter-molecular hydrogen bonds link neighbouring mol-ecules into inversion dimers, forming R 2 2(14) ring motifs. These inversion dimers are stacked along the b axis. The structure is further stabilized by C- H⋯π inter-actions.

In the title compound, C26H20ClNO2, the quinoline ring system is approximately planar with a maximum deviation of 0.028 (2) Å and forms a dihedral angle of 73.84 (5)° with the phenyl ring. Two neighbouring mol-ecules are arranged into a centrosymmetric dimer through a pair of inter-molecular C-H⋯Cl inter-actions. A pair of inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link two methoxy-phenyl groups into another centrosymmetric dimer, generating an R 22(8) ring motif. The structure is further stabilized by C-H⋯π inter-actions.
