C.-M. Li and H.-Y. Ban

Abstract: The title compound, C₁₄H₁₂N₂O₃·CH₄O, consists of a Schiff base molecule and a methanol molecule of crystallization. The Schiff base molecule is nearly planar, the dihedral angle between the planes of the two benzene rings being 7.2 (2)°. The molecule exists in the trans configuration with respect to the methylidene unit. In the crystal structure, the Schiff base and methanol molecules are linked through O-HO, N-HO and O-HN hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.
