title: (Z)-3-(2-Amino-anilino)-1-phenyl-but-2-en-1-one.
abstract: In the title compound, C16H16N2O, the phenyl and 2-amino-phenyl rings are almost perpendicular to one another, with a dihedral angle of 82.77 (8)°. There is an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond in the mol-ecule. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds forming chains along [001]. There are also C-H⋯π inter-actions present, linking the chains to form a three-dimensional structure.
