Abstract
Abstract The molecular structure of N-benzylidene-aniline has been studied experimentally by the gas electron diffraction method, and also by molecular mechanics calculations. Both approaches gave the same results for the most stable conformer of the free molecule. The phenyl ring bonded to the carbon end of the CN bond was found to be coplanar with this bond, while the other phenyl ring was extensively (ca. 52°) rotated about the NΦ bond.
