Crystal structure of (E)-5-benzyloxy-2-{[(4-nitrophenyl)imino]methyl}phenol
In the title compound, C20H16N2O4, the molecule adopts an E conformation about the N=C bond. There is an intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond forming an S(6) ring motif. The nitrobenzene and benzyloxy rings are inclined to the central benzene ring by 4.34 (10) and 27.66 (11)°, respectively, and to o...

| Summary: | In the title compound, C20H16N2O4, the molecule adopts an E conformation about the N=C bond. There is an intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond forming an S(6) ring motif. The nitrobenzene and benzyloxy rings are inclined to the central benzene ring by 4.34 (10) and 27.66 (11)°, respectively, and to one another by 31.40 (12)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked via C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming zigzag chains along [001]. Within the chains there are C—H...π interactions present. The chains are linked via π–π interactions [inter-centroid distance = 3.7048 (15) Å], forming slabs parallel to the bc plane. |
