In the title compound, C20H22N2O2, the contains two independent half-molecules, which are both completed by crystallographic inversion symmetry. The cyclohexane rings of both molecules adopt chair conformations; the N atoms are in equatorial orientations in one molecule and in axial orientations in the other. Both molecules feature two intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, which generate S(6) rings.

The title compound arose as a bi-product from heating a reaction mixture of 114 mg (1 mmol) cyclohexane-1,4-diamine, 112 mg (1 mmol) cyclohexane-1,3-dione and 122 mg (1 mmol) salicylaldehyde in 50 ml e thanol under reflux for 6 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated under vacuum then left to cool at ambient temperature. The obtained solid was collected by Buckner funnel, washed with water then ethanol, dried in desiccator and crystallized from ethanol (m.p. 451 K). Yellow prisms were grown from ethanol solution by slow evaporation over two days.
All H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with O—H = 0.82 Å and C—H = 0.93 Å (aromatic), 0.97 Å (methylene) and 0.98 Å (methine), with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O) for OH groups and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for others.

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles |
Refinement. Refinement on F2 for ALL reflections except those flagged by the user for potential systematic errors. Weighted R-factors wR and all goodnesses of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The observed criterion of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating -R-factor-obs 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 base compounds have been reported as excelent substrates in the development of coordination chemistry (e.g. Li & Zhang, 2004), In this study we report the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound (I).
As shown in Fig. 1, there are two independent half molecules A (with C1) and B (with C11) in the asymmetric unit of the title compound. They are centrosymmetric and the centres of symmetry are lied on the centroids of their cyclohexane rings. The cyclohexane rings of them adopt chair conformations Molecular conformation of the title compound is stabilized by intramolecular O—H···N hydrogen bonds, generating an S(6) ring motif (Table 1, Fig. 2).
