The molecule of the title compound, C16H17N3O5S, crystallizes in a zwitterionic form, with a strong intramolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 7.06 (9)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked into chains along the c axis by intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

2-Hydroxy-5-nitrobenzaldehyde (10 mg, 5.98× 10-2 mmol) in ethanol (20 ml) was added to a solution of N-p-tolyl-sulfonylethylenediamine (12.7 mg, 5.98× 10-2 mmol) in ethanol (20 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h under reflux. Single crystals of the title compound were obtained by slow evaporation of an ethylacetate solution (yield 55%; m.p. 446–447 K).
Atoms H1 and H1A were located in a difference map and were refined freely. The remaining H atoms were placed in calculated positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93–0.97 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(methyl C).

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 have been extensively used as ligands in the field of coordination chemistry (Calligaris et al., 1972). Schiff base compounds can be classified by their photochromic and thermochromic characteristics (Cohen et al., 1964). These properties result from a proton transfer from the hydroxyl O atom to the imine N atom (Hadjoudis et al., 1987). Schiff bases exhibit two well known tautomeric forms viz. OH and NH tautomers, and they also exist in zwitterionic form (Karabıyık et al., 2008). Our investigations show that the title compund has a zwitterionic form with a strong intramolecular N—H···O hydrogen bond (Fig. 1).
The C7N2 [1.292 (2) Å] and C6—03 [1.272 (2) Å] bond distances in the title compound are comparable to those [1.292 (2) and 1.264 (2) Å] observed in a related zwitterionic structure (Ali et al., 2008). The molecule adopts a folded conformation. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 7.06 (9)°.
The intramolecular N2—H1A···O3 hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring motif (Bernstein et al., 1995). The molecules are linked into chains (Fig. 2) along the c axis by intermolecular N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1).
