In the 20H21N3O4, the amino group forms an N—H⋯O hydrogen bond to the acetyl group of an adjacent molecule, forming a zigzag chain. The 2-hydroxy group is internally hydrogen bonded to the amido group though an O—H⋯O hydrogen bond.

2-Hydroxybenzohydrazide was condensed with 1-methylindole-3-carboxaldehyde to yield the corresponding Schiff base. To N'-[(1-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)methylene]-2-hydroxybenzohydrazide (0.88 g, 3 mmol) was added acetic anhydride (10 ml). The mixture was heated to 398–403 K until the reactants dissolved completely. After 2 h of heating, the mixture was cooled and then treated with ethyl acetate and saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The organic layer was separated and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated and the resulting solid was recrystallized from methanol to give (I) as colorless crystals.
Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.95 to 0.98 Å) and were included in the
in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2–1.5U(C). The hydroxy- and ammonium H-atoms were located in a difference Fourier map, and were refined with a distance restraints O–H = N–H = 0.85±0.01 Å; their temperature factors were freely refined.Data collection: APEX2 software (Bruker, 2007); cell

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. |

The Schiff base, N'-[(1-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)methylene]-2-hydroxybenzohydrazide, exhibits useful medicinal properties (Jin et al., 2006; Joshi et al., 2008; Szczepankiewicz et al., 2001). When dissolved in acetic anhydride, the compound undergoes a reaction to yield the title compound, (I), Fig. 1. Essentially, a mole of methyl acetate has been added across the carbon-nitrogen double-bond. In the crystal structure of (I), the amino group forms an N–H···O hydrogen bond to the acetyl group of an adjacent molecule to result in a zigzag chain that runs along the b-axis of the orthorhombic unit cell, Table 1. The 2-hydroxy group is internally hydrogen bonded to the amido group though an O–H···O hydrogen bond, Table 1.
