Abstract
The title compound, C
H
N
, a Schiff base synthesized
a condensation reaction between anthracene-9-carbaldehyde and
-phenyl-
-phenyl-enedi-amine, crystallizes with three independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The three mol-ecules have slightly varying overall conformations, all having
conformations with respect to the C=N bond. In the crystal, the packing features N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, which connect mol-ecules into chains extending along the
-axis direction, inter-linked by C-H⋯π inter-actions (minimum H⋯
= 2.65 Å) into sheets lying parallel to (001).
