Comment top

Schiff base ligands are one of the most prevalent systems in coordination chemistry. As part of a general study of potentially tetradenate Schiff bases (Kargar et al., 2009; Kargar et al. 2010), we have determined the crystal structure of the title compound.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, Fig. 1, comprises a potentially tetradenate Schiff base ligand. The bond lengths are comparable to previously reported structures (Kargar et al., 2009, Kargar et al., 2010). The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 30.47 (15) °. Strong intramolecular O—H···N hydrogen bonds (Table 1) generate two S(6) ring motifs (Bernstein et al., 1995).

Experimental top

The title compound was synthesized by adding 5-methoxy-salicylaldehyde (4 mmol) to a solution of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine (2 mmol) in ethanol (20 ml). The mixture was refluxed with stirring for 30 min. The resultant yellow solution was filtered. Yellow crystals were obtained by slow evaporation of its ethanol solution at room temperature over several days.

Special details top

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.
