1,3-Bis[(-)-(S)-(1-phenyl-eth-yl)imino-meth-yl]benzene.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(24)H(24)N(2), is an enanti-omerically pure bis-aldimine, which displays twofold crystallographic symmetry, with two C atoms of the central benzene ring lying on the symmetry axis. The imine group is slightly twisted from the benzene core, with a dihedral angle of 12.72 (16)° between the benzene ring and the C=N-C(*) plane. The terminal phenyl rings make an angle of 66.44 (4)° and are oriented in opposite directions with respect to the benzene ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules inter-act weakly through a C-H⋯π inter-action involving the phenyl rings, and form chains along the 2(1) screw-axis in the [100] direction.
