The title compound, C22H28N2, which is a double imine derived from ethane-1,2-diamine and mesityl aldehyde, has crystallographic inversion symmetry, with both C=N bonds E configured. The dihedral angle between the mesityl ring system and the imide functional group is 23.89 (17)°.

The asymmetric unit of the title neutral rhenium(V) coordination compound, [ReBr2(C10H11N2O)O(C18H15P)], contains two mol­ecules. In each of the two molecules the metal atom is octa­hedrally coordinated, the bromido ligands being cis-orientated. The chelate ligand is present in its imine-tautomeric form. In the crystal, C—H⋯Br contacts connect the mol­ecules into chains along [101]. The shortest inter­centroid distance between two aromatic rings was found to be 3.906 (2) Å.
