1,3-Bis[(−)-(S)-(1-phenyl­eth­yl)imino­meth­yl]benzene

The title compound, C(24)H(24)N(2), is an enanti­omerically pure bis-aldimine, which displays twofold crystallographic symmetry, with two C atoms of the central benzene ring lying on the symmetry axis. The imine group is slightly twisted from the benzene core, with a dihedral angle of 12.72 (16)° between the benzene ring and the C=N—C(*) plane. The terminal phenyl rings make an angle of 66.44 (4)° and are oriented in opposite directions with respect to the benzene ring. In the crystal, mol­ecules inter­act weakly through a C—H⋯π inter­action involving the phenyl rings, and form chains along the 2(1) screw-axis in the [100] direction.
