Description
Summary:In the title compound, C15H11NO3, the two essentially planar benzaldehyde groups [maximum deviations = 0.0487 (12) and 0.0205 (10) Å] are inclined at a dihedral angle of 72.64 (6)° with respect to each other. The bridging C—C—N—C torsion angle is 22.58 (18)°. In the crystal, intermolecular bifurcated acceptor N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds link inversion-related molecules into dimers incorporating R12(7) and R22(8) ring motifs. The crystal structure is further stabilized by weak intermolecular C—H...π interactions.
