Abstract

The title compound, C11H14N2, crystallized with two independent mol­ecules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit. The two mol­ecules differ only slightly, with the pyrrole rings being inclined to one another at a dihedral angle of 87.67 (8)° in mol­ecule A and 88.09 (7)° in mol­ecule B. In the crystal, there are no classical hydrogen bonds, but the two pyrrole NH groups of one mol­ecule are involved in N—H⋯π inter­actions with the pyrrole rings of the other mol­ecule. In this manner, a compact box-like arrangement of the two independent mol­ecules is formed.

Highlights

  • The title compound, C11H14N2, crystallized with two independent molecules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit

  • The title compound was prepared as a building block for the formation of substituted calix[4]pyrroles

  • In the title compound the quateranry centers, C9 in A and C29 in B, impose a twist to the molecules with the pyrrole ring mean-planes being almost perpendicular to one another; 87.67 (8) ° in molecule A and 88.09 (7)° in molecule B. This is similar to the situation in the diethyl analogue where the two dihedral angles are 86.5 (2) and 86.7 (2) °
