Abstract: The title compound, C₁₄H₁₂O₂N₂, consists of a phenylamino group and a 2-phenyl-1,2-ethanedione 1-oxime group. Intermolecular O-HN, N-HO and intramolecular N-HO hydrogen bonds [ON 2.776 (1), 3.086 (1) and 2.574 (1) Å] are highly effective in forming polymeric chains, thereby stabilizing the crystal structure. The oxime group has the E configuration.
