N,N′-Di(p-tolyl)-1,4-benzoquinonediimine (N,N′-Di-p-tolylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diimine)
The title compound has been fully characterised using 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, which reveals (E) to (Z) isomerisation upon dissolution. In the solid state, X-ray diffraction shows exclusively the (E)-isomer with two geometrically near-identical independent molecules each with the outer rings tilted with respect to the central ring.
