Salicylaldehyde (1.221 g, 10 mmol) was dissolved in 20 ml ethanol and added, with continuous stirring, to a hot ethanolic solution (30 ml) containing N-aminophthalimide (1.621 g, 10 mmol). The mixture was further stirred, refluxed for 5 h and allowed to stand overnight. The final yellow product was dissolved in ethanol and a single crystal of the title compound was obtained after slow evaporation of the solvent at room temperature (Yield: 89%; M.p. 465 K).
All H atoms were positioned at calculated positions with O—H = 0.82 Å, Csp2—H = 0.93 Å and refined using a riding model; Uiso(H) = kUeq(attached atom), where k = 1.2 for Csp2 and 1.5 for O.

form a significant class of compounds in medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry, with several biological applications that include antibacterial (Sithambaram Karthikeyan et al., 2006), antifungal (Singh et al., 2006) and antitumor activity (Walsh et al., 1996).The

The isoindoline ring system is almost planar [maximum deviation = 0.020 (2) Å] and makes a dihedral angle of 1.57 (7)° with the benzene ring. The bond distances and bond angles are in good agreement with those in a closely related (Jing et al., 2007).In the

Geometry. All s.u.'s (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u.'s is used for estimating s.u.'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 > 2σ(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. |

Based on the multiple binding sites of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), a series of AChE inhibitors involving phthalimide derivatives were designed and synthesized (Zhao et al., 2009). Phthalimide derivatives have also been developed as LXRa-selective antagonists (Motoshima et al., 2009). Azomethine group-containing compounds, typically known as Schiff bases, form a significant class of compounds in medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry, with several biological applications that include antibacterial (Sithambaram Karthikeyan et al., 2006), antifungal (Singh et al., 2006) and antitumor activity (Walsh et al., 1996).
The asymmetric unit of 2-{[(1E)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)methylene]amino} -1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione contains one molecule (Fig. 1). The isoindoline ring system is almost planar [maximum deviation = 0.020 (2) Å] and makes a dihedral angle of 1.57 (7)° with the benzene ring. The bond distances and bond angles are in good agreement with those in a closely related crystal structure (Jing et al., 2007).
In the crystal structure, molecules intramolecula O5—H5···N2 and C9—H9···O4 hydrogen bonds are observed (Table 1). The packing of the molecules shows stacking when viewed along the b axis (Fig. 2).
