In the title compound, C15H13BrN2O2, he oxime unit adopts an E conformation with respect to the O—H group. A classical intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond results in the formation of a six-membered ring. The is stabilized by intermolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds between the hydroxy groups and the oxime N atoms. In addition, the also features short intermolecular Br⋯Br short contacts with a distance of 3.8768 (5) Å.

The title compound was synthesized according to an analogous method reported earlier (Dong et al., 2009b). To an ethanol solution (5 ml) of 3-aminophenylethanone oxime (150.2 mg, 1.00 mmol) was added dropwise an ethanol solution (5 ml) of 5-bromosalicylaldehyde (201.1 mg, 1.00 mmol) then the yellow precipitate was obtained. The mixture solution was stirred at 328–333 K for 1 h. After cooling to room temperature, the precipitate was filtered off, dried in vacuo and purified by recrystallization from ethanol of solid. Yield: 54.01%, m. p. 459–461 K. Anal. Calc. for C15H13BrN2O2: C, 54.07; H, 3.93; N, 8.41. Found: C, 54.32; H, 4.01; N, 8.81.
Yellow needle-like single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction studies were obtained by slow evaporation from a solution of dichloromethane at room temperature for about four weeks.
Non-H atoms were refined anisotropically. H atoms were treated as riding atoms with distances C—H = 0.96 Å (CH3), 0.93 Å (CH), O—H = 0.82 Å for (OH). The isotropic displacement parameters for all H atoms were set equal to 1.2 or 1.5 Ueq of the carrier atom.

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 base ligands containing oxygen and imine nitrogen atoms have attracted much attention due to their variety of applications as well as their strong coordination capability (Dong et al., 2007; Dong et al., 2008; Wang et al., 2009). The oxime compounds frequently exhibit versatility in organic, inorganic, bioinorganic, pigment, analytical, dyes and medical chemistry (Golovnia et al., 2009; Liu et al., 2008; Dong et al., 2009a; Öztürk et al., 2009). Owing to the importance of oxime-type compounds, we report the crystal structure of the title compound (Fig. 1).
In the crystal structure, all bond lengths and bond angles are in normal ranges. The molecule has a crystallographic inversion centre and the oxime unit adopts an E conformation with respect to the O—H group. The aniline ring (C3–C8) and phenol ring (C10–C15) are almost parallel each other, making a dihedral angle of 2.71 (1)°. The torsion angles of O1—N1—C2—C3 and C5—N2—C9—C10 are 178.5 (3) and -178.8 (3)°, respectively. In the crystal structure, a classical intramolecular O—H···N hydrogen bond forms a six-membered ring (Fig. 2 and Table 1). The crystal packing (Fig. 2) is stabilized by intermolecular O—H···N hydrogen bonds between the hydroxy groups and oxime N atoms, with a O1—H1···N1i (Table 1). In addition, the crystal structure was further stabilized by weak intermolecular Br···Brii (Fig. 2) short interactions with a distance of 3.8768 (5) Å.
