Bis[4-(2-benzylidenepropylideneamino)phenyl] ether

The title compound, C32H28N2O, is a flexible Schiff base displaying a trans configuration across the C=N double bond. It was prepared in high yield by condensation of α-methylcinnamaldehyde and bis(4-aminophenyl) ether in methanol at room temperature. The sample, with pseudo-orthorhombi...
