2-(Thio-phen-2-yl)-N-(4-{(E)-[2-(thio-phen-2-yl)eth-yl]imino-meth-yl}benzyl-idene)ethanamine

Abstract

In the crystal of the centrosymmetric title compound, C(20)H(20)N(2)S(2), mol-ecules are linked by head-to-tail C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, resulting in chains extending along the a axis. Three additional C-H⋯π inter-molecular inter-actions give rise to a herringbone packing motif which extends along the c axis. The C-H⋯N inter-actions provide links between the sheets.
