Abstract: The title Schiff base compound, C₁₄H₁₂BrClN₂O, exists in an E configuration with respect to the central C=N double bond. The amino group adopts a pyramidal configuration. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 76.88 (10)° and an intramolecular O-HN hydrogen bond forms a six-membered ring, generating an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked into chains along [010] via N-HO hydrogen bonds. The presence of - interactions [centroid-centroid distance = 3.6244 (12) Å] further stabilizes the crystal structure.
