The 20H16N2O4·CH3OH, contains two Schiff base and two methanol solvent molecules. The dihedral angles between the central benzene ring and the two outer benzene rings of the Schiff base are 2.57 (7) and 52.30 (7)° in one molecule and 5.83 (7) and 49.82 (7)° in the other molecule. Intramolecular O—H⋯N and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate S(6) ring motifs, whereas intramolecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds generate S(5) ring motifs. In the O—H⋯O, hydrogen bonds and weak C—H⋯O interactions link the molecules into one-dimensional chains along the b-axis direction and are further connected by O—H⋯O and weak C—H⋯O interactions into a three-dimensional network. C—H⋯π and π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distances = 3.6228 (9) and 3.6881 (9) Å] are also observed in the crystal structure.

The title compound was synthesized by adding 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (0.552 g, 4 mmol) to a solution of o-phenylenediamine (0.216 g, 2 mmol) in ethanol (20 ml). The mixture was refluxed with stirring for half an hour. The resultant yellow solution was filtered. Yellow single crystals of the title compound suitable for x-ray
were recrystallized from ethanol by slow evaporation of the solvent at room temperature over several days.Hydroxyl and imine H atoms were located from the difference map and refined riding on the parent atoms with
of the isotropic thermal parameters. The remaining H atoms were placed in calculated positions with d(C—H) = 0.93 Å, Uiso=1.2Ueq(C) for aromatic, CH, 0.96 Å, Uiso = 1.5Ueq(C) for CH3 atoms A rotating group model was used for the methyl groups.Data collection: APEX2 (Bruker, 2005); cell

Experimental. The low-temperature data was collected with the Oxford Cyrosystem Cobra low-temperature attachment. |
Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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. |

Schiff bases have received much attention because of their potential applications with some of these compounds exhibiting various pharmacological activities, as noted by their anticancer (Dao et al., 2000), anti-HIV (Sriram et al., 2006), antibacterial and antifungal (Karthikeyan et al., 2006) properties. In addition, some of them may be used as analytical reagents for the determination of trace elements (Eltayeb & Ahmed, 2005a,b) such as nickel in some natural food products (Fakhari et al., 2005). We reported the crystal structures of 5,5'-Dimethoxy-2,2'-[1,2-phenylenebis(nitrilomethylidyne)diphenol (Eltayeb et al., 2007a) and 4,4'-Dimethoxy-2,2'-[1,2-phenylenebis(nitrilomethylidyne)diphenol (Eltayeb et al., 2007b) and we report here the structure of the title compound (I), a closely-related Schiff base.
The asymmetric unit of (I) (Fig. 1) contains two Schiff base zwitterions and two methanol molecules (A and B). The zwitterion results from protonation of the imine N1A and N1B atoms with protons from the O2A and O2B hydroxy groups resulting in the formation of iminium and hydroxyphenolate groups. In the structure, the hydroxyphenolate ring (C1–C6/O1-O2) is nearly coplanar with the phenyl ring (C8–C13) as indicated by the dihedral angles between these two rings being 2.57 (7)° in molecule A and 5.83 (7)° in molecule B and the torsion angle C8/N1/C7/C6 = 179.33 (2)° in molecule A and 178.07 (12)° in molecule B. The C8–C13 phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 52.30 (7)° with the dihydroxyphenyl ring (C15–C20/O3–O4) in molecule A [49.82 (7)° in molecule B].
Intramolecular hydrogen bonds, O3A—H3OA···N2A, N1A—H1NA···O2A, O3B—H3OB···N2B and N1B—H1NB···O2B (Table 1) generate S(6) ring motifs whereas N1A—H1NA···N2A and N1B—H1NB···N2B generate S(5) ring motifs (Bernstein et al., 1995). Bond lengths and angles are in normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987) and comparable to those in related structures (Eltayeb et al., 2007a,b). In the crystal packing (Fig. 2), O—H···O, hydrogen bonds and weak C—H···O interactions (Table 1) link the molecules into one dimensional chains along the b direction and are further connected by O—H···O and weak C—H···O interactions (Table 1) into a three-dimensional network (Table 1). The crystal is further stabilized by weak C—H···π interactions (Table 1). π···π interactions were also observed with the distances of Cg1···Cg5 = 3.6228 (9) Å and Cg2···Cg4 = 3.6881 (9) Å (symmetry code : x, y, z in each case); Cg1, Cg2, Cg3, Cg4 and Cg5 are the centroids of the C1A–C6A, C8A–C13A, C15A–C20A, C1B–C6B and C8B–C13B benzene rings, respectively.
