title: 2,2-Dimethyl-N,N'-bis-(4-nitro-benzyl-idene)propane-1,3-diamine.
abstract: In the title compound, C(19)H(20)N(4)O(4), a potential bidentate Schiff base ligand, each imino (C=N) functional group is coplanar with the adjacent benzene ring. The two benzene rings form a dihedral angle of 10.52 (6)°. Inter-molecular C-H⋯O contacts link neighbouring mol-ecules into supra-molecular array with an R(2) (2)(32) ring motif and a C-H⋯π contact is also present.
