The molecule of the title Schiff base compound, C20H13ClN2O3, assumes an E configuration about the C=N bond. The aromatic rings of the nitrobenzene and chlorobenzene groups are twisted by 13.89 (13)° and form dihedral angles of 76.38 (13) and 84.64 (13)°, respectively, with the phenyl ring. In the crystal, molecules are linked into chains parallel to the b axis by C—H⋯π interactions.

The synthesis of title compound was carried out by refluxing a mixture of 4-nitrobenzaldehyde (1 mol) and 2-amino-5-chlorobenzophenone (1 mol) in ethanol (50 ml) along with 3 drops of conc. H2SO4 for 5 h at 70 °C. After cooling down to room temperature, the crystalline product was collected by filtration, washed with methanol and dried to afford the title compound in 85% yield. Recrystallization from methanol afforded yellow crystals found suitable for single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. All chemicals were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich.
H atoms were positioned geometrically with C—H = 0.93 Å, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).
Schiff bases are well known reaction products of aldehyde/ketone functionalities with
and are considered as important ligands in coordination chemistry. They are also well known to possess a wide range of biological activities including antifungal, antiinflammatory, anti-HIV, antibacterial, herbicidal, antiproliferative, cytotoxic, anticonvulsant and anticancer activities (Khan et al., 2009; Gerdemann et al., 2002; Samadhiya & Halve, 2001; Mallikarjun & Sangamesh, 1997; Fioravanti et al., 1995; Solomon & Lowery, 1993). The title compound was prepared and crystallized during our ongoing research on bioactive compounds.The structure of title compound (Fig. 1) is composed of three aromatic rings A–C (C1-C6, C8-C13 and C15-C20) with dihedral angles of 76.38 (13)°, 84.64 (13)° and 13.89 (13)° between the A/B, A/C and B/C planes, respectively. The azomethine C═N double bond adopts an E configuration, with a C13–N1–C14–C15 torsion angle of 177.1 (2)°. The bond lengths and angles are similar to those observed in other structurally related compounds (Cox et al., 2008; Vasco-Mendez et al., 1996; Zeb & Yousuf, 2011). The bond length of the azomethine double bond is 1.249 (3)Å. In the (Fig. 2), the molecules are arranged into chains parallel to the b axis by C—H···π interactions (Table 1).

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 bases are well known reaction products of aldehyde/ketone functionalities with amines and are considered as important ligands in coordination chemistry. They are also well known to possess a wide range of biological activities including antifungal, antiinflammatory, anti-HIV, antibacterial, herbicidal, antiproliferative, cytotoxic, anticonvulsant and anticancer activities (Khan et al., 2009; Gerdemann et al., 2002; Samadhiya & Halve, 2001; Mallikarjun & Sangamesh, 1997; Fioravanti et al., 1995; Solomon & Lowery, 1993). The title compound was prepared and crystallized during our ongoing research on bioactive compounds.
The structure of title compound (Fig. 1) is composed of three aromatic rings A–C (C1-C6, C8-C13 and C15-C20) with dihedral angles of 76.38 (13)°, 84.64 (13)° and 13.89 (13)° between the A/B, A/C and B/C planes, respectively. The azomethine C═N double bond adopts an E configuration, with a C13–N1–C14–C15 torsion angle of 177.1 (2)°. The bond lengths and angles are similar to those observed in other structurally related compounds (Cox et al., 2008; Vasco-Mendez et al., 1996; Zeb & Yousuf, 2011). The bond length of the azomethine double bond is 1.249 (3)Å. In the crystal structure (Fig. 2), the molecules are arranged into chains parallel to the b axis by C—H···π interactions (Table 1).
