The title potential antibacterial compound, C14H12N2O4·H2O, is a Schiff base which has an intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond and crystallizes with one uncoordinated water molecule, which links three symmetry-related molecules through two O—H⋯O and one N—H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the further intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link symmetry-related molecules, forming layers parallel to the bc plane.

Salicylaldehyde and 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid hydrazide were purchased from Aldrich and were used without further purification. Salicylaldehyde (0.1 mmol, 12.2 mg) and 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid hydrazide (0.1 mmol, 16.8 mg) were mixed in a methanol solution (10 cm3). The mixture was stirred at reflux for 30 min and cooled to room temperature. After keeping the solution in air for a few days, yellow block-shaped crystals appeard at the bottom of the vessel.
The NH H-atom, H2A, and the water H-atoms were located from difference Fourier maps and were refined with the N–H, O–H and H···H distances restrained to 0.90 (1), 0.85 (1) and 1.37 (2) Å, respectively. The remaining H-atoms were placed in calculated positions and treated as riding atoms; C–H = 0.93 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C), and O–H = 0.82 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).
Compounds derived from the Schiff base condensation reaction of
with have been widely investigated both from a structural point of view and for their biological activity (Jing et al., 2006; Yang, 2007; Wang et al., 2007). Complexes derived from have also been widely investigated (Ali et al., 2005; Qiu et al., 2006; Diao, 2007; Diao, 2007; Diao, Li et al., 2007; Diao, Shu et al., 2007; Diao, Wang et al., 2007). We report herein the of the title compound derived from the reaction of equimolar salicylaldehyde with 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid hydrazide in a methanol solution.The molecular structure of the title compound (Fig. 1) is a Schiff base, which has an intramolecular O1—H1···N1 hydrogen bond (Table 1), and crystallizes as a water solvate. In the
the water molecule links three symmetry related molecules through two donnor O—H···O hydrogen bonds and one acceptor N—H···O hydrogen bond (Table 1). Together with two further intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds, layers parallel to the bc plane are formed (Fig. 2).For related structures see Ali et al., 2005; Diao, 2007; Diao, Li et al., 2007; Diao, Shu et al., 2007; Diao, Wang et al., 2007; Jing et al., 2006; Qiu et al., 2006; Wang et al., 2007; Yang, 2007.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Compounds derived from the Schiff base condensation reaction of aldehydes with hydrazides have been widely investigated both from a structural point of view and for their biological activity (Jing et al., 2006; Yang, 2007; Wang et al., 2007). Complexes derived from Schiff bases have also been widely investigated (Ali et al., 2005; Qiu et al., 2006; Diao, 2007; Diao, 2007; Diao, Li et al., 2007; Diao, Shu et al., 2007; Diao, Wang et al., 2007). We report herein the crystal structure of the title compound derived from the reaction of equimolar salicylaldehyde with 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid hydrazide in a methanol solution.
The molecular structure of the title compound (Fig. 1) is a Schiff base, which has an intramolecular O1—H1···N1 hydrogen bond (Table 1), and crystallizes as a water solvate. In the crystal structure the water molecule links three symmetry related molecules through two donnor O—H···O hydrogen bonds and one acceptor N—H···O hydrogen bond (Table 1). Together with two further intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds, layers parallel to the bc plane are formed (Fig. 2).
