The title compound, C15H14N2O3, was prepared by the reaction of 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 4-methoxybenzohydrazide in methanol. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 6.8 (1)°. The methoxy group is disordered over two orientations with occupancies of ca 0.63 and 0.37. In the major disorder component, the methoxy group is coplanar with the attached ring. In the the molecules are linked into a three-dimensional framework by intermolecular O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

4-Hydroxybenzaldehyde (1.0 mmol, 122.1 mg) and 4-methoxybenzohydrazide (1.0 mmol, 166.2 mg) were added to methanol (30 ml). The mixture was stirred at reflux for 10 min to give a clear colourless solution. After keeping the solution in air for 12 d, colourless needle-shaped crystals were formed.
H atoms were positioned geometrically (C–H = 0.93–0.96 Å, O–H = 0.82 Å, N–H = 0.86 Å) and refined as riding, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C,N) and 1.5Ueq(O,Cmethyl). The methoxy group is disordered over two sites with occupancies of 0.630 (2) and 0.370 (2). The corresponding C—O distances in both disorder components were restrained to be equal. The displacement parameters of atoms O3, O3A, C15 and C15A were restrained to an approximate isotropic behaviour. The low resolution is caused by weak diffraction of the crystal.

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. |

Schiff bases are readily synthesized by the reaction of aldehydes with primary amines (Akitsu & Einaga, 2006; Pradeep, 2005; Butcher et al., 2005; Habibi et al., 2007). We have reported a few Schiff bases and their complexes (Wei et al., 2008a,b; Wei et al., 2006; Wei & Wang, 2006; Zhu et al., 2007; Wang et al., 2006). In this paper, we report the crystal structure of a new Schiff base compound.
Bond lengths and angles in the title compound (Fig. 1) are comparable with those observed in other Schiff bases (Yehye et al., 2008; Odabaşoğlu et al., 2007; Yathirajan et al., 2007). The dihedral angle between the C1–C6 and C9–C14 phenyl rings is 6.8 (1)°, indicating that they are nearly coplanar. In the major disorder component, the methoxy group is coplanar with the attached ring [C15—O3—C12—C11 = -2.6 (6)°].
The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular O—H···O and N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1). These hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a three-dimensional framework (Fig. 2).
