In the molecule of the title compound, C16H18N4O4, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two benzene rings is 56.76 (5)°. The crystal structure reveals extensive intermolecular hydrogen bonds between carbonyl O atoms and primary amines, as well as between primary and secondary amines of hydrazide, forming rings of R

2(6) motifs, respectively. The structure is further stabilized by intramolecular and non-classical hydrogen bonds of the types N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O, respectively. The structure does not show any π–π interactions.
In the crystal structure of the title compound, C32H34O6, the molecule is located on a twofold rotation axis. The two naphthyl fused-ring systems are aligned at 72.6 (1)°. Weak intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonding is present in the crystal structure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
