The title compound, C23H30N2O4, a di-Mannich base derived from 4-meth­oxy­phenol and cis-1,2-di­amine­cyclo­hexane, has a perhydro­benzimidazolidine nucleus, in which the cyclo­hexane ring adopts a chair conformation and the heterocyclic ring has a half-chair conformation with a C—N—C—C torsion angles of −48.14 (15) and −14.57 (16)°. The mean plane of the heterocycle makes dihedral angles of 86.29 (6) and 78.92 (6)° with the pendant benzene rings. The mol­ecular structure of the title compound shows the presence of two inter­actions between the N atoms of the imidazolidine ring and the hydroxyl groups through intra­molecular O—H...N hydrogen bonds with graph-set motif S(6). The unobserved lone pairs of the N atoms are presumed to be disposed in a syn conformation, being only the second example of an exception to the typical `rabbit-ears' effect in 1,2-di­amines.
