The 11H14N2O3·C16H16N2O4, contains one molecule of 2-hydroxy-4-methyl-N-propanoylbenzohydrazide and one-half of a molecule of 2-hydroxy-N-(2-hydroxy-4-methylbenzoyl)-6-methylbenzohydrazide. The latter is located on a centre of inversion. Intramolecular N—H⋯O interactions stabilize the conformations of both molecules. The is stabilized by intermolecular N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Propionic anhydride (0.26 g, 2.00 mmol) and 2-hydroxy-4-methylbenzohydrazide (0.31 g, 1.80 mmol) were stirred with an external ice-water bath in DMF (20 ml) for 6 h. The filtrate was evaporated on a rotary evaporator. After recrystallization, the title compound were obtained.
All H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms (C—H = 0.93 Å; N—H = 0.86 Å; O—H = 0.82 Å) and Uiso(H) values were set to 1.2Ueq(C, N) and 1.5Ueq(O).

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. |

N-Acylsalicylhydrazides are an interesting class of compounds because of their unique properties. They have been used extensively as ligands in coordination chemistry. N-acylsalicylhydrazide compounds show photoluminescence in the solid state by proton transfer from O atom to the imine N atom (Majumder et al., 2006). The nuclearity and the shape of the metallamacrocycles could be modulated by controlling the steric interactions caused by N-acyl tails of the ligands (John et al., 2007).
A view of the title structure is illustrated in Fig. 1. The asymmetric unit contains one molecule of 2-hydroxy-4-methyl-N-propanoylbenzohydrazide and half a molecule of 2-hydroxy-N-(2-hydroxy-4-methylbenzoyl)-6-methylbenzohydrazide.
The molecular conformation is characterized by N—H···O hydrogen bonds and the crystal packing is stabilized by N—H···O and O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2).
