The title compound, C(15)H(13)NO(2), was prepared through a palladium-catalysed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction. The dihedral angle between the biphenyl rings is 40.96 (6)°. The meth-oxy groups are twisted slightly out of the plane of the benzene ring [C-C-C-C torsion angles = -3.61 (18) and 12.6 (2)°]. The packing of the molecules is stabilized by van der Waals inter-actions.
