title: N-o-Tolyl-benzamidine.
abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(14)H(14)N(2), contains two independent mol-ecules with slightly different conformations; the dihedral angles formed by aromatic rings in the two mol-ecules are 73.2 (1) and 75.0 (1)°. Inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into chains extended in the [100] direction.
