Abstract

New Schiff base compound 2-amino-N-(3-phenylprop-2-enylidene)aniline, 1, was prepared by condensation of cinnamaldehyde with o-phenylenediamine and characterized by elemental analyses, UV-Vis and FT-IR spectroscopy. The crystal structure of 1 was determined by X-ray crystallography from single-crystal data and displays a trans configuration about the C=N double bond. In the crystal structure of 1, the molecule is located on an inversion center, so that it is disordered around the center of central C-C bond. The results from both the experimental and theoretical calculations are compared in this paper.
