The title molecule, a benzohydrazide derivative, C16H16N2O4, is twisted with a dihedral angle of 69.97 (5)° between the two benzene rings. An intramolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(5) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H⋯O and weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a chain along the c axis. C—H⋯π interactions are also present.

The title compound (I) was prepared by dissolving 4-methoxybenzohydrazide (2 mmol, 0.33 g) in ethanol (10 ml). The solution of 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde (2 mmol, 0.30 g) in ethanol (10 ml) was then added slowly to the reaction. The mixture was refluxed for around 3 hr. The solution was then cooled to room temperature. Colorless plate-shaped single crystals of the title compound suitable for X-ray
were recrystallized from methanol by slow evaporation of the solvent at room temperature after several days (m.p. 491-492 K).Amide and hydroxy H atoms were located in difference maps and refined isotropically [N—H = 0.887 (18) Å and O—H = 0.87 (2) Å]. The remaining H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93 Å for aromatic and CH and 0.96 Å for CH3 atoms. The Uiso values were constrained to be 1.5Ueq of the
for methyl H atoms and 1.2Ueq for the remaining H atoms. A rotating group model was used for the methyl groups.Benzohydrazide derivatives have been reported to possess various biological properties, such as antibacterial and antifungal (Loncle et al., 2004), antitubercular (Bedia et al., 2006), antimalarial (Melnyk et al., 2006) and antiproliferative (Raj et al., 2007) activities. We have previously reported some crystal structures of this type of compounds (Fun et al., 2011; Horkaew et al., 2011; Promdet et al., 2011). The title compound (I) was synthesized in order to study the effect of functional groups to their bioactivities comparing to the closely related structures. (I) was screened for antibacterial and antioxidant activities. Our results show that (I) exhibits moderate antibacterial activity whereas it is inactive for antioxidant activity. The three dimensional structure of (I) was studied in order to gain more details to explain the effect of structure on its bioactivity.
The molecule of the title benzohydrazide derivative (Fig. 1), C16H16N2O4, exists in a trans-configuration with respect to the C8═N2 bond [1.2808 (14) Å] and the torsion angle of N1–N2–C8–C9 is 179.20 (9)°. The molecule is twisted as indicated by the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings being 69.97 (5)°. The middle bridge fragment (O1/C7/N1/N2/C8) is nearly planar with a torsion angle N2–N1–C7–O1 = -0.80 (16)°. The mean plane through this bridge makes dihedral angles of 27.88 (7) and 43.44 (7)° with the C1–C6 and C9–C14 benzene rings, respectively. The methoxy group of 4-methoxyphenyl (at atom C4) is co-planar with its bound benzene ring [torsion angle C15–O2–C4–C5 = -0.76 (16)° and r.m.s 0.0131 (1) Å for the seven non H atoms], whereas the methoxy group of the 3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl (at atom C12) is slight deviated with a torsion angle C16–O4–C12–C13 = 10.02 (15)°. An intramolecular O3—H1O3···O4 hydrogen bond generates an S(5) ring motif (Bernstein et al., 1995). Bond distances are of normal values (Allen et al., 1987) and are comparable with the related structures (Fun et al., 2011; Horkaew et al., 2011; Promdet et al., 2011).
In the crystal packing (Fig. 2), the molecules are linked by N—H···O hydrogen bonds and weak C—H···O interactions (Table 1) into chains along the c axis. These chains are arranged in a face-to-face manner. The crystal is stabilized by N—H···O hydrogen bonds, weak C—H···O and C—H···π interactions (Table 1).

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K. |
Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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. |

Benzohydrazide derivatives have been reported to possess various biological properties, such as antibacterial and antifungal (Loncle et al., 2004), antitubercular (Bedia et al., 2006), antimalarial (Melnyk et al., 2006) and antiproliferative (Raj et al., 2007) activities. We have previously reported some crystal structures of this type of compounds (Fun et al., 2011; Horkaew et al., 2011; Promdet et al., 2011). The title compound (I) was synthesized in order to study the effect of functional groups to their bioactivities comparing to the closely related structures. (I) was screened for antibacterial and antioxidant activities. Our results show that (I) exhibits moderate antibacterial activity whereas it is inactive for antioxidant activity. The three dimensional structure of (I) was studied in order to gain more details to explain the effect of structure on its bioactivity.
The molecule of the title benzohydrazide derivative (Fig. 1), C16H16N2O4, exists in a trans-configuration with respect to the C8═N2 bond [1.2808 (14) Å] and the torsion angle of N1–N2–C8–C9 is 179.20 (9)°. The molecule is twisted as indicated by the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings being 69.97 (5)°. The middle bridge fragment (O1/C7/N1/N2/C8) is nearly planar with a torsion angle N2–N1–C7–O1 = -0.80 (16)°. The mean plane through this bridge makes dihedral angles of 27.88 (7) and 43.44 (7)° with the C1–C6 and C9–C14 benzene rings, respectively. The methoxy group of 4-methoxyphenyl (at atom C4) is co-planar with its bound benzene ring [torsion angle C15–O2–C4–C5 = -0.76 (16)° and r.m.s 0.0131 (1) Å for the seven non H atoms], whereas the methoxy group of the 3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl (at atom C12) is slight deviated with a torsion angle C16–O4–C12–C13 = 10.02 (15)°. An intramolecular O3—H1O3···O4 hydrogen bond generates an S(5) ring motif (Bernstein et al., 1995). Bond distances are of normal values (Allen et al., 1987) and are comparable with the related structures (Fun et al., 2011; Horkaew et al., 2011; Promdet et al., 2011).
In the crystal packing (Fig. 2), the molecules are linked by N—H···O hydrogen bonds and weak C—H···O interactions (Table 1) into chains along the c axis. These chains are arranged in a face-to-face manner. The crystal is stabilized by N—H···O hydrogen bonds, weak C—H···O and C—H···π interactions (Table 1).
