Abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, (-)-2,2'-[(1S,2S)-1,2-diphenyl-1,2-ethanediylbis(nitrilomethylidyne)]diphenol, C₂₈H₂₄N₂O₂, has been determined at 173  (2)  K in the non-centrosymmetric space group P2₁2₁2. The molecule lies on a crystallographic twofold axis of symmetry. The asymmetric unit contains one-half of the molecule. An intramolecular O-HN hydrogen bond is formed between the phenol OH group and the Schiff base N atom.
