The mol-ecular structure of the title compound, C20H26N2O2 reveals non-co-planarity between the central formamidine backbone and each of the outer meth-oxy- and i-propyl- substituted benzene rings with dihedral angles of 7.88 (15) and 81.17 (15)°, respectively, indicating significant twists in the mol-ecule. In the crystal, inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions, forming an R 3 4(30) graph set, occur within a two-dimensional layer that extends along the ac plane.
Keywords: crystal structure; non-symmetric hydroxyformamidine; zwitterion.
