In the title compound, C17H11ClN2O3, an intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond influences the molecular conformation; the naphthol system and the substituted benzene ring form a dihedral angle of 3.5 (1)°. In the crystal, weak intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link molecules into chains in the [010] direction The crystal packing exhibits π–π interactions between the aromatic rings from the neighbouring molecules, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.566 (7) Å.

20 ml of methanol, 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde (0.172 g, 1 mmol), 2-chloro-4-nitrobenzenamine (0.172 g, 1 mmol) and four drops of acetic acid were added to a 50 ml round bottom flask with a magnetic stir bar. The solution was refluxed for 1.5 h until it was a bright orange color. The solution was then gravity filtered hot and allowed to slowly cool, yielding 0.268 g (78% yield) of bright orange-yellow needle-like crystals.
H atoms were placed in idealized positions (C—H 0.95 - 0.98 Å, O—H 0.82 Å), and thereafter treated as riding , with Uiso (H) = 1.2-1.5 Ueq of the parent atom. In view of poor quality of the single-crystal sample selected for data collection (though it was the best one), the relatively high values of Rint and R(F2) were obtained.

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 play a vital role in coordination chemistry due to their metal binding ability (Garnovskii et al., 1993). In addition, Schiff bases and their metal complexes have wide applications in biological systems (Pyrz et al., 1985). 2-Hydroxy Schiff bases are formed by reactions of salicylaldehyde and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde with various amines (Caligaris et al., 1972). In contrast to salicylaldimine derivatives, the Schiff bases of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde have been rarely investigated (Salman et al., 1990; Popovic et al., 2001). Herewith we present the title compound (I), derived from 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde.
In (I) (Fig. 1), the bond lengths and angles are normal and comparable with those observed for unsubstituted analogues (Burgess et al., 1999; Gayathri et al., 2007). Due to intramolecular O—H···N hydrogen bond (Table 1), the C—N=C—C torsion angle (between the phenol and benzene rings) is close to 180° with the value of 178.4 (7)°. In the crystal structure, weak intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link the molecules into chains in [010]. The crystal packing exhibits π-π interactions between the aromatic rings from the neighbouring molecules with centroid-centroid distance of 3.566 (7) Å.
