Synthesis and crystal structure of <i>N</i>,<i>N</i>'-(1,4-phenyl-enedi-methyl-idyne)bis-(2-phenyl-benzenamine).

ABSTRACT: This work reports the synthesis and structural aspects of the title compund, a conjugated 1,4-phenyl-enedi-imine, C₃₂H₂₄N₂, which is encumbered with two steric biphenyl moieties. The compound possesses an inversion center and crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2₁/n. The presence of biphenyl units across the conjugated di-imine results in a non-planar structure, where the two biphenyl units are twisted away from the plane of the central phenyl ring. The single-crystal XRD (SC-XRD) study of this mol-ecule provides insight into its mol-ecular conformation, bond parameters, and inter-molecular inter-actions, which are essential for understanding its potential as a key building block for the construction of inter-esting supra-molecu
