The title compound, C8H10N2O2, crystallizes as two independent molecules linked by N—H⋯N and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a linear chain running along the a axis of the monoclinic The intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds are described as a two-ring R22(10) motif. The six-membered R11(6) rings formed by the intramolecular interactions are almost planar (r.m.s. deviations 0.06 and 0.08 Å). In one molecule, the aromatic and hydrogen-bonded rings are oriented at 4.8 (2)°, whereas in the other molecule these rings are oriented at 6.1 (4)°.

All reagent-grade chemicals were obtained from Aldrich and Sigma Chemical companies and were used without further purification. To a solution of ethyl-2-methoxybenzoate (3.6 g, 20 mmol) in 75 ml e thanol, hydrazine hydrate (5.0 ml, 100 mmol) was added. The mixture was refluxed for 5 h and a solid was obtained upon removal of the solvent by rotary evaporation. The resulting solid was washed with hexane to afford 2-methoxybenzohydrazide (yield 78%) (Ara et al., 2007). Colourless single crystals of (I) were obtained by slow evaporation of methanol solution at room temperature.
The Hydrogen atoms bonded to aryl and methyl Carbon atoms were positioned geometrically, with C—H = 0.93 Å and C—H = 0.96 Å respectively. The thermal parameter of H-atoms of methyl group was taken 1.5 times of the parent C-atom, whereas for aromatic H-atoms it was taken 1.2 times of their parent atoms. Atoms H1N, H21N, H22N H3N, H41N, H42N with N–H= 0.86 (2)–0.96 (2)Å are located in a difference Fourier map and constrained to ride on their parent atom, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N).

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. |

Hydrazides are known to have different biological activities and have been used for the synthesis of various heterocyclic compounds (El-Emam et al., 2004). In order to study the biological activity of 2-methoxybenzohydrazide, we undertook the synthesis of title compound and report its crystal structure in this paper. The title compound I was found to be antifungal (Maqsood et al., 2006) and phytotoxic (Ara et al., 2007). The unit cell contains two crystallographically unique molecules (Fig. 1). The structures of benzhydrazide (Kallel et al., 1992), para-chloro (Saraogi et al., 2002) and para-methoxy (Ashiq et al., 2009), analogues of (I) have already been reported.
The molecular packing diagram (Fig. 2) shows the presence of intermolecular hydrogen bonds of N—H···N and N—H···O types (details are given in Table 1) results in the formation of two ring motifs with graphic notation R22(10) (Bernstein et al., 1995), for each. Intramolecular interactions give rise six membered rings C (O2/C6/C1/C7/N1/H1N) and D (O4/C14/C9/C15/N3/H3N) R11(6) (Bernstein et al., 1995), in each molecule. In one molecule, the A and C rings are oriented at 4.8 (2)°, whereas in the other molecule, the B and D rings are oriented at 6.1 (4)°.
