Ethyl 4-aminobenzoate (0.35 g) dissolved in ethanol (5 ml) was added to 3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde (0.5 g) dissolved in ethanol (20 ml). Several drops of acetic acid were added. The solution was heated for 3 h. The solvent was evaporated and the product recrystallized from ethanol to yield orange prisms in 80% yield. The compound (0.5 g) was dissolved in methanol-THF (1:1) (20 ml). The solution was cooled to 273 K and three equivalents of sodium tetraborate were added. The mixture was stirred for 4 h until the orange color was discharged. The mixture was filtered and the solvent evaporated. The colorless compound was recrystallized from a hexane-ethanol mixure (yield 90%).
Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.95–0.99 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2–15U(C).
The amino and hydroxy H-atoms were also placed in calculated positions and their displacement parameters were also similarly tied (N–H 0.88 Å and O–H 0.84 Å).
One of the tert-butyl groups is disordered over two positions with respect to the methyl units in an 83.4 (6):16.6 (6) ratio; the C–Cmethyl distances were restrained to 1.50±0.01 Å; the anisotroic displacement parameters of the six methyl C-atoms were restrained to be nearly isotropic. By the use of a SAME instruction, the bonds involving the C12', C13' and C14' were restrained to the same length as those involving the unprimed ones. In addition, the 1,3-related distances were restrained to be equal in both disordered moieties.
The Schiff base, ethyl 4-(di-3,5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)benzoate, is an intensely orange-colored compound whose color can be attributed to the azomethine double-bond; in the crystal structure, the two aromatic rings are aligned at 24.9 (1) ° (Shakir et al., 2010). The reduction of this compound affords the title colorless compound (Scheme I, Fig. 1), which is a secondary amine. The amino and hydroxy groups are hydrogen-bond donors to the carbonyl oxygen atom of an adjacent molecule; the hydrogen bonds give rise to a chain that runs along the b-axis. One of the tert-butyl groups is disordered over two positions with respect to the methyl units in an 83.6 (6):16.4 (6) ratio.

The Schiff base, ethyl 4-(di-3,5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)benzoate, is an intensely orange-colored compound whose color can be attributed to the azomethine double-bond; in the crystal structure, the two aromatic rings are aligned at 24.9 (1) ° (Shakir et al., 2010). The reduction of this compound affords the title colorless compound (Scheme I, Fig. 1), which is a secondary amine. The amino and hydroxy groups are hydrogen-bond donors to the carbonyl oxygen atom of an adjacent molecule; the hydrogen bonds give rise to a chain that runs along the b-axis. One of the tert-butyl groups is disordered over two positions with respect to the methyl units in an 83.6 (6):16.4 (6) ratio.
