N1-[(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)methylidene]-N4-phenylbenzene-1,4-diamine
The title compound, C16H14N4, is non-planar with dihedral angles between the planes of the imidazole and phenylenediamine rings of 30.66 (4)° and between the planes of the phenylenediamine and N-phenyl rings of 56.63 (7)°. In the crystal, molecules are connected by N—H...N hydrogen bonds, generating...

| Summary: | The title compound, C16H14N4, is non-planar with dihedral angles between the planes of the imidazole and phenylenediamine rings of 30.66 (4)° and between the planes of the phenylenediamine and N-phenyl rings of 56.63 (7)°. In the crystal, molecules are connected by N—H...N hydrogen bonds, generating a chain extending along the b-axis direction. The crystal structure is also stabilized by C—H...π interactions between N-phenyl and imidazole rings and slipped π–π stacking interactions between imidazole rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.516 (4) Å] giving an overall two-dimensional layered structure lying parallel to (010). |
