In the title compound, C15H13N3O3, the dihedral angle formed by the two benzene rings is 44.23 (2)°. The is stabilized by aromatic π–π stacking interactions, with centroid-centroid distances of 3.825 (3) and 3.870 (4) Å between the aniline and the nitrobenzene rings of neighbouring molecules, respectively. In addition, the stacked molecules exhibit intermolecular C—H⋯N and C—H⋯O interactions.

4-Aminophenylethanone oxime was prepared by 1-(4-aminophenyl)ethanone, hydroxylamine sulfate and sodium acetate (Rafiq et al., 2008; Duan et al., 2007; Dong et al., 2008). To an ethanol solution (5 ml) of 4-aminophenylethanone oxime (150.2 mg, 1.00 mmol) was added dropwise an ethanol solution (5 ml) of 4-nitrobenzaldehyde (152.5 mg, 1.01 mmol). The mixture solution was stirred at 328–333 K for 5 h. After cooling to room temperature, the precipitate was filtered off, and washed successively three times with ethanol. The product was dried in vacuo and purified by recrystallization from ethanol to yield 367.5 mg (Yield, 82.6%) of solid; m.p. 484–485 K. Pale-yellow block-like single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction studies were obtained by slow evaporation from a solution of ethyl acetate of (I) at room temperature for about one month. Anal.

Atom H1 of the hydroxy group was found in a difference Fourier map and was refined with an O—H distance restraint of 0.95 (4) Å. The other H atoms were treated as riding atoms with distances C—H = 0.96 (CH3), 0.93 Å (CH), and Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) and 1.5 Ueq(O). In the absence of significant
effects, Friedel pairs were merged.Data collection: SMART (Siemens, 1996); 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. |
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. |

It is well known that Schiff bases are one of the most popular mixed-donor ligands in the field of coordination chemistry. Schiff bases often exhibit various biological activities and in many cases were shown to have antibacterial, anticancer, anti-inflammatory and antitoxic properties (Lozier et al., 1975). Some structures of oxime compounds forming by Schiff bases reaction have been reported (Bomfim et al., 2005; Fun et al., 2008). Here we report the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound (I), (Fig. 1).
The dihedral angle in (I) formed by the aniline and nitrobenzene rings is 44.23 (2)°. The molecular packing (Fig. 2) is stabilized by aromatic π···π interactions between the aniline and the nitrobenzene rings of neighbouring molecules, with a Cg1···Cg2iii separation of 3.825 (3) Å and a Cg1···Cg2iv separation of 3.870 (4) Å (Fig. 2; Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the C3—C8 benzene and the C10–C15 benzene rings, respectively). Additionally, intermolecular O–H···N and C—H···O interactions in the structure were observed (Table 1 and Fig. 2).
The title compound is not chiral, but space group is p212121. This is because the title compound is rigid in the crystal, and adopts a chiral helicalx-type structure.
