Crystal structure of 1,1'-{(dodecane-1,12-di-yl)bis-[(aza-niumylyl-idene)methanylyl-idene]}bis-(naphthalen-2-olate).

The title compound, C34H40N2O2, exists in an extended conformation and has crystallographically imposed centrosymmetry. The crystal packing can be described as being composed of parallel layers stacked along [010]. The zwitterionic structure is stabilized by an intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen-bond inter­action.
