(4E)-N-[(2-Bromo-phen-yl)meth-oxy]-1,3-dimethyl-2,6-diphenyl-piperidin-4-imine
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(26)H(27)BrN(2)O, the piperidine ring has a chair conformation and all ring substituents occupy equatorial positions, apart from the double-bonded N atom, which occupies a bis-ectional position. The dihedral angle formed between the phenyl rings is 61.18 (19)°, and the phenyl rings form dihedral angles of 49.78 (19) and 69.2 (18)° with the bromo-benzene ring. The latter is coplanar with the meth-oxy(methyl-idene)amine fragment [N-O-C-C torsion angle = -171.7 (2)°]. Linear supra-molecular chains, approximately along [112], sustained by C-H⋯π inter-actions, feature in the crystal packing.

Structure and Nomenclature of Ethers
Ethers are organic compounds with an ether functional group which is characterized by an oxygen atom connected to two — identical or different — alkyl, aryl, or vinyl groups. The C–O–C linkage in dimethyl ether — the simplest ether — has an approximately tetrahedral bond angle of 110.3 degrees. The oxygen atom is sp3- hybridized, with the C–O distance being about 140 pm.

Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
