Y.-J. Wei, F.-W. Wang and Q.-Y. Zhu

Abstract: The title compound, C₁₄H₉Br₃N₂O₂·CH₄O, was prepared by the reaction of 3,5-dibromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 3-bromobenzohydrazide in methanol. The asymmetric unit of the crystal consists of a Schiff base molecule and a methanol molecule of crystallization. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 5.5 (2)°. An intramolecular O-HN hydrogen bond is observed. In the crystal structure, pairs of adjacent Schiff base molecules are linked by two methanol molecules through intermolecular N-HO and O-HO hydrogen bonds.
