The crystal structure of the potential active 4,6-dimethyl-9-phenyl-8,12-dioxa-4,6-diazatetracyclo [8.8.0.02,7.013,18] octadeca-2(7),13,15,17-tetraene-3,5,11-trione 2-ethoxyphenyl (2E)-but-2-enoate ($C_{22}H_{18}N_2O_5$) has been determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data. In the title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group $P_12_1/c_1$ with unit cell dimension a=15.2039(8), b=12.3888(6) and c= 9.8162(5) [alpha & $gamma=90^{\circ}$ beta=98.113(2)]. In the structure fused pyrone and pyran rings each adopt a sofa/envelop conformation. The crystal structure is stabilized by intramolecular C-H... O hydrogen bond interaction.
