Description
Summary:The molecular and crystal structure of 5-Methoxysalicylaldehyde 3-methoxybenzoyl-hydrazone were investigated. It was observed that the molecules of the compound, were linked by hydrogen bonds into a zigzag chain along the c axis of the monoclinic cell. It was also observed that the aromatic ring of the compound having the hydroxy substituent was twisted by 20.0 (1) ° with respect to the planar -N=N-C(=O)- fragment, whereas the other aromatic ring was twisted by 31.1 (1)°. It was found that the crystal structure featured a long b axis and adjacent molecules interact via hydrogen bonds to form a zigzag chain along the c axis.
