In the title compound, C17H18N2O3, the benzene rings form a dihedral angle of 3.34 (2)°. There is a strong intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds (which induces planarity of the structure). In the crystal, molecules are linked by pairs of O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers.

To an ethanol solution (5 ml) of 3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde(166.2 mg, 1.00 mmol) was added an ethanol solution (5 ml) of 4-aminophenylethanone oxime (151.7 mg, 1.00 mmol). After the solution had been stirred at 328 K for 5 h, the mixture was filtered. The residue was washed successively with ethanol and n-hexane, respectively. The isolated compound was dried under reduced pressure to yield 281.1 mg of yellow solid (yield 80%, m.p. 436–437 K). Elemental analysis also supports composition of the title compound.

H atoms were treated as riding atoms with distances C—H = 0.96 (CH3), C—H = 0.97 (CH2), 0.93 Å (CH), 0.82 Å (OH), and the values of Uiso(H) for the thermal parameters for aromatic, methylene and hydroxy protons Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C)(aromatic), Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(C)(methylene) and Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(C)(hydroxy), respectively.

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. |

Oxime-type compounds are a traditional class of chelating ligands widely used in coordination and analytical chemistry and extraction metallurgy (Dong et al., 2009; Narasaka et al., 2005). In the last few years, a large number of oxime-type compounds and their complexes have been reported (Dong et al., 2008; Akine et al., 2002). However, the oxime-type compounds derived the 4-aminophenylethanone have never been reported. In this paper, the crystal structure of new oxime-type compound, 1-(4-{[(E)-3-ethoxy-2-hydroxybenzylidene] amino}phenyl)ethanone oxime, derived from the reaction of 4-amino-phenylethanone oxime and 3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde (I), (Fig. 1) is reported.
The single-crystal structure of the title compound was determined by X-ray crystallography. The crystal structure of the title compound is only built up by the C17H18N2O3 molecules, in which all bond lengths are in normal ranges. The two benzene rings form a dihedral angle of 3.34 (2) °. There is a strong intramolecular O2–H2···N2 hydrogen bonds (which induces planarity on the structure). In the crystal structure, the molecules form dimers disposed about two pairs of inter-molecular O—H..N hydrogen bonds. (Table 1)(Wu et al., 2010).
