The title compound was prepared by mixing a solution of butane-1,4-diamine (1 mmol) dissolved in chloroform (3 ml) and 4-dimethylamino benzaldehyde (2 mmol) dissolved in chloroform (3 ml) and stirring the mixture under reflux for 8 h. Colorless single crystals suitable for x-ray structure determination were obtained after recrystallization by slow evaporation from an ethanol solution at room temperature after several days.
All H atoms were located in a difference map and isotropically refined. The Uiso values were constrained to be 1.5Ueq of the carrier atom for methyl H atoms and 1.2Ueq for the remaining H atoms. A rotating group model was used for the methyl groups. The final difference Fourier map showed a high peak 0.97 Å from C1.
Schiff bases readily form stable complexes with most transition metal ions (Amirnasr et al., 2002; Habibi et al., 2007; Pal et al., 2005) and show biological activity (Adsule et al., 2006; Hou et al., 2001; Ren et al., 2002). In this paper, we report the crystal structure of the title Schiff base compound.
The molecule of the title compound lies across an crystallographic inversion centre and the asymmetric unit therefore contains one-half of the molecule (Fig. 1). The molecular structure of the title compound is non-planar but is in a staggered conformation about the C1–C1A bond [symmetry code (A): 1 - x, 1 - y, -z]. The two benzene rings are parallel to each other, the dihedral angle between the planar benzylidene (C4–C9/C3/N1) and the planar bridging butane (C1/C2/C1A/C2A) [symmetry code (A): 1 - x, 1 - y, -z] groups is 77.77 (7) °. The dimethylamino group is slightly twisted respect to the attached benzene ring as indicated by torsion angles of C10/N2/C7/C6 = -5.55 (11) ° and C11/N2/C7/C8 = 16.80 (11)°. Bond lengths and angles are in normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987) and comparable to closely related structures (Bahron et al., 2007; Kassim et al., 2006).
In the crystal structure, Fig. 2, molecules are arranged into columns along the a axis by C—H ···π interactions (Table 1); Cg1 is the centroid of C4–C9 benzene ring.
For the values of bond lengths and angles, see Allen et al. (1987). For related structures, see, for example, Bahron et al. (2007); Kassim et al. (2006).

Experimental. The low-temparture data was collected with the Oxford Cyrosystem Cobra low-temperature attachment. |
Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Schiff bases readily form stable complexes with most transition metal ions (Amirnasr et al., 2002; Habibi et al., 2007; Pal et al., 2005) and show biological activity (Adsule et al., 2006; Hou et al., 2001; Ren et al., 2002). In this paper, we report the crystal structure of the title Schiff base compound.
The molecule of the title compound lies across an crystallographic inversion centre and the asymmetric unit therefore contains one-half of the molecule (Fig. 1). The molecular structure of the title compound is non-planar but is in a staggered conformation about the C1–C1A bond [symmetry code (A): 1 - x, 1 - y, -z]. The two benzene rings are parallel to each other, the dihedral angle between the planar benzylidene (C4–C9/C3/N1) and the planar bridging butane (C1/C2/C1A/C2A) [symmetry code (A): 1 - x, 1 - y, -z] groups is 77.77 (7) °. The dimethylamino group is slightly twisted respect to the attached benzene ring as indicated by torsion angles of C10/N2/C7/C6 = -5.55 (11) ° and C11/N2/C7/C8 = 16.80 (11)°. Bond lengths and angles are in normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987) and comparable to closely related structures (Bahron et al., 2007; Kassim et al., 2006).
In the crystal structure, Fig. 2, molecules are arranged into columns along the a axis by C—H ···π interactions (Table 1); Cg1 is the centroid of C4–C9 benzene ring.
