Bis{4-(3-phenyl­allyl­idene)aminocyclo­hexyl}methane trichloro­methane solvate

摘要

The title compound, C31H38N2, was prepared from bis­(4-amino­cyclo­hexyl)methane and two equivalents of cinnamaldehyde. The cyclo­hexyl groups each show a chair conformation and the α,β-unsaturated imine side chains are all-trans configured. Two mol­ecules of the title compound as well as two trichloromethane solvent mol­ecules are present in the asymmetric unit. The solvent mol­ecules inter­act with the diimines via weak C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.
