The title compound, C18H21N3O3, is a potential bidentate Schiff base ligand. The whole molecule is disordered with a refined site-occupancy ratio of 0.567 (4):0.433 (4) and not just one ethyl group as reported previously [Sarojini et al. (2007). Acta Cryst. E63, o4782–o4782]. Using the whole molecule disorder, R values are much smaller than those published. An intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond generates a six-membered ring, producing an S(6) ring motif. The dihedral angle between the mean plane of the two benzene rings (major component) is 9.0 (5)°. The shows short C⋯C [3.189 (15)–3.298 (12) Å] and C⋯O [2.983 (5)–3.149 (13) Å] contacts. Intermolecular C—H⋯O interactions link neighbouring molecules into dimers with R22(18) motifs. In the these dimers are linked together by intermolecular C—H⋯O interactions into one-dimensional extended chains along the b axis. The is further stabilized by intermolecular π–π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid distances = 3.458 (8)–3.691 (6) Å].

An equimolar mixture of 4-(diethylamino)-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde (0.5 g, 2.59 mmol) and 4-methyl-3-nitro aniline (0.393 g, 2.59 mmol) in ethanol (10 mL) were refluxed for 4 h. Catalytic amount of sulfuric acid was also added. The precipitated solid was filtered and recrystallised from acetone to yield orange coloured crystalline solid [0.41 g, 82 %, m.p 405 K]).
H atoms of the hydroxy groups were positioned by a freely rotating O—H bond and constrained with a fixed distance of 0.84 Å. The rest of the hydrogen atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model with C—H = 0.95–0.99 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2 or 1.5 Ueq(C). A rotating-group model was applied for the methyl hydrogen atoms of the methoxy groups. Rigid bond, similarity and simulation restraints were applied.

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. |

Compounds with the structure of –C═N– (azomethine group) are known as Schiff bases, which are usually synthesized by the condensation of primary amines and active carbonyl groups. The chemistry of the carbon-nitrogen double bond plays a vital role in the progresses of chemistry (Patai 1970). They have been used as intermediates in medical substrates and as ligands in complex formation with some metal ions (Tai et al., 2003). Recently multi-dentate complexes of iron and nickel showed high activities of ethylene oligomerization and polymerization (Ittel et al., 2000). They have shown biological activities including antibacterial (Kabeer et al., 2001; Pandeya et al., 1999), antifungal (More et al., 2001; Singh & Dash 1988), anticancer (Isloor et al., 2009; Pathak et al., 2000), anti-inflammatory (Vazzanaa et al., 2004) and herbicidal (Samadhiya & Halve 2001) activities. In addition, Schiff bases have also been used as starting materials in the synthesis of large bioactive and industrial compounds via ring closure, cycloaddition and replacement reactions (Aydoğan et al., 2001).
In the title compound, (I), (Fig. 1), an intramolecular O—H···N hydrogen bond generate a six-membered ring, producing S(6) ring motif (Table 1). Intermolecular C—H···O interactions link neighbouring molecules into dimers with R22(18) motifs (Table 1, Fig. 2). The whole molecule is disordered with a site occupancy ratio of 0.567 (4)/0.433 (4) and not just the ethyl group as mentioned in the previously reported article (Sarojini et al., 2007). Using the whole molecule disorder, R-values are much smaller than those published.
The two substituted benzene rings are not coplanar and make a dihedral angle of 9.0 (5)° (for major component A). The interesting features of the crystal structure is short C1A···C8Ai [3.298 (12) Å;(i) 1-x,-y,2-z], C1B···C8Bi [3.329 (16) Å], C3B···C12Bi [3.189 (15) Å], C15A···O3Aii [2.983 (5) Å; (ii) 3/2-x,-1/2+y,3/2-z], C8B···O3Biii [3.149 Å; (iii) -x,-y,1-z], and C13B···O3Biii [3.116 (15) Å] contacts which are shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii of these atoms. In the crystal structure, these dimers are linked together by intermolecular C—H···O interaction into 1-D extended chains along the b-axis (Fig. 3). The crystal structure is further stabilized by weak intermolecular π-π interactions [Cg1··· Cg2i = 3.7744 (6) Å; Cg2···Cg3i = 3.473 (7) Å; Cg3···Cg4i = 3.458 (8) Å and Cg1···Cg4 = 3.670 (7) Å: Cg1, Cg2, Cg3, and Cg4 are the centroids of the C1A–C6A, C8A–C13A, C1B–C6B, and C8B–C13B benzene rings].
