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.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C23H30N2O2, contains one half-mol­ecule, with a twofold axis splitting the mol­ecule in two identical halves. The structure of the racemic mixture has been reported previously [Rivera et al. (2009) J. Chem. Crystallogr. 39, 827–830] but the enanti­omer reported here crystallized in the ortho­rhom­bic space group P21212 (Z = 2), whereas the racemate occurs in the triclinic space group P-1 (Z = 2). The observed mol­ecular conformation is stabilized by two intra­molecular O—H...N hydrogen bonds, which generate rings with graph-set motif S(6). In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked via non-classical C—H...O inter­actions, which stack the mol­ecules along the b axis.

In the title compound, C25H36N2O2, the two tert-butyl-substituted benzene rings are inclined at an angle of 53.5 (3)° to one another. The imidazolidine ring has an envelope conformation with with one of the C atoms of the ethylene fragment as the flap. The structure displays two intra­molecular O—H...N hydrogen bonds that generate S(6) ring motifs. The crystal studied was a non-merohedral twin with a fractional contribution of 0.281(6) for the minor domain.
