Abstract: | The molecule of the title compound, C18H24N2O2, resides on a crystallographic inversion centre. The molecule adopts a transoid conformation with respect to the central C—C single bond and is in the meso form. A polarimetric study of the compound did not show any optical activity, indicating that the compound is a racemic mixture entirely consistent with the centrosymmetric space group. In the molecule, there is one intramolecular N—H⋯O interaction, resulting in the formation of a five‐membered ring. In the crystal structure, intermolecular O—H⋯N and C—H⋯O interactions are also observed. These interactions form an R22(9) ring and one‐dimensional linear chains of edge‐fused rings running parallel to the [010] direction, which stabilize the crystal packing. |
