Non-mutagenic organic pigment intermediates. I. 3,3'-dipropoxybenzidine.
Crystals of the title compound, C(18)H(24)N(2)O(2), were grown from ethanol by slow evaporation and the structure has been determined. The molecule resides on a crystallographic inversion center and the biphenyl moiety is essentially planar. The structure forms an infinite two-dimensional array of N-H.pi(arene) interactions parallel to the (101) direction.
