N-(4-Chloro-benzyl-idene)-4-methoxy-aniline.

ABSTRACT

The title compound, C(14)H(12)ClNO, was prepared by the reaction of 4-methoxy-aniline and 4-chloro-benzaldehyde in ethanol at 367 K. The mol-ecule is almost planar, with a dihedral angle between the two benzene rings of 9.1 (2)° and an r.m.s. deviation from the mean plane through all non-H atoms in the mol-ecule of 0.167 Å.
