A monoclinic polymorph of (R,R)-4,4′-dibromo-2,2′-[cyclo­hexane-1,2-diylbis(nitrilo­methanylyl­idene)]diphenol

The title compound, C(20)H(20)Br(2)N(2)O(2), a tetra­dentate Schiff base, is the enanti­omerically pure R,R-diastereomer of four possible stereoisomers. The mol­ecular structure reveals two strong intra­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds between the hy­droxy O atom and the imino N atom, which each generate S(6) rings. In the crystal, mol­ecules are stacked in columns along the a axis; when viewed down the b axis, successive columns are stacked in the opposite direction. The structure reported herein is the monoclinic polymorph of the previously reported ortho­rhom­bic form [Yi & Hu (2009 ▶). Acta Cryst. E65, o2643], in which the complete mol­ecule is generated by a crystallographic twofold axis.
