A new Schiff base compound, C20H16N2, was prepared by the reaction of isophthalaldehyde with aniline. The terminal phenyl rings are almost perpendicular, with a dihedral angle of 85.8 (2)°. The terminal phenyl rings make dihedral angles of 60.8 (2) and 52.5 (2)° with the central ring. Both C N groups adopt a trans configuration. Adjacent pairs of centrosymmetrically related molecules are connected via π-π stacking interactions between their central benzene rings, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.747 (2) Å.
