title: 4,4',6,6'-Tetra-tert-butyl-2,2'-[1,2-phenyl-enebis(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]diphenol acetone solvate.
abstract: In the Schiff base mol-ecule of the title compound, C(36)H(48)N(2)O(2)·C(3)H(6)O, the central benzene ring makes dihedral angles of 46.64 (10) and 49.34 (10)° with the two outer benzene rings, and the two outer benzene rings form an angle of 39.13 (8)°. There are two intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds involving the two hydr-oxy groups, which generate S(6) ring motifs. In the crystal structure, the Schiff base mol-ecules are linked into a chain along the a axis by C-H⋯π inter-actions. The acetone solvent mol-ecules are attached to the chain via C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
