Abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₂₁H₂₅ClN₂O, contains four crystallographically independent molecules, which differ mainly in the orientation of the isobutyl groups. The benzene rings are almost orthogonal to each other, forming dihedral angles of 87.40 (6), 88.69 (6), 84.88 (6) and 85.12 (6)° in the four molecules. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular N-HO and C-HO hydrogen bonds, together with C-H interactions.
