(E)-1-Benzyl­idene-2,2-diphenyl­hydrazine

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₁₉H₁₆N₂, contains two independent mol­ecules, both of which show an E configuration with respect to the C=N bond. The dihedral angles between the phenyl rings bonded to the hydrazine group are 81.00 (10) and 88.34 (8)° in the two mol­ecules. Inter­molecular C—H...π inter­actions are observed in the crystal structure.
