Abstract: In the title Schiff base, C₁₆H₁₆ClNO₂, the 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl (CH₃OC₆H₄CH₂CH₂-; r.m.s. deviation = 0.10 Å) and 4-chloro-2-(iminomethyl)phenol (N=CHC₆H₃ClOH; r.m.s. deviation = 0.01 Å) portions are both essentially planar, the two parts being inclined at an angle of 61.8 (1)°. The hydroxy group forms a hydrogen bond to the imino N atom.
