2-[5-Methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)phenoxy]-N′-{2-[5-methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)phenoxy]acetyl}acetohydrazide
Abstract
The complete molecule of the title compound, C24H32N2O4, is generated by a crystallographic inversion center. The 1,2-diethylhydrazine moiety is nearly planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.024 (1) Å, and is inclined at a dihedral angle of 54.20 (4)° with the phenyl ring. In the crystal, [001] chains are formed, with adjacent molecules in the chain linked by pair of intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds, generating R22(10) ring motifs. Intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds and C—H...π interactions are also observed.
