The title compound, C14H12ClN3O2, displays an E conformation with respect to the C=N double bond. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 41.3 (5)°. The molecular structure is stabilized by an intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond. In the crystal, N—H⋯O and weak N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a three-dimensional architecture. In addition, there are weak C—H⋯π stacking interactions.

To a methanol solution (20 ml) of 5-chloro-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde (1 mmol, 0.157 g) and 4-aminobenzohydrazide (1 mmol, 0.151 g), a few drops of acetic acid were added. The mixture was refluxed for 2 h and then cooled to room temperature to give a yellow solution. Crystals of the title compound were formed by gradual evaporation of the solvent over a period of six days at room temperature.
H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H = 0.93, O—H = 0.82 and N—H = 0.86-0.89 Å) and were included in the
in the riding model approximation, with Uiso(H) set to 1.2Ueq(C or N) and 1.5 Ueq(O).Data collection: SMART (Bruker, 2007); cell

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. |

Schiff bases are an important class of compounds in the medicinal and pharmaceutical fields and have been found to play a role in the development of coordination chemistry as they readily form stable complexes with most transition metals. These complexes show interesting properties, e.g. their ability to reversibly bind oxygen, catalytic activity in hydrogenation of olefins and transfer of an amino group, photochromic properties, and complexing ability towards toxic metals (Karthikeyan et al., 2006; Khattab, 2005; Kucukguzel et al., 2006). Recently, hydrazone Schiff base compounds (Cao, 2009; Yang, 2009; Zhou & Yang, 2010; Zhang et al., 2009) derived from the reaction of aldehydes with hydrazines have been demonstrated to possess excellent biological activities, such as anti-bacterial, anti-convulsant, and anti-tubercular (Bernhardt & Caldwell et al., 2003; Bernhardt & Chin et al., 2005; Armstrong et al., 2003). In order to explore new anti-bacterial materials, a new hydrazone derivatives was prepared and characterized. It can be seen that in addition to the presence of the typical functional group —CO—NH—N═ CH—, the compound has chloro, hydroxy and amino substituents, which may enhance its biological properties.
As shown in Fig. 1, the molecule displays an E configuration with respect to the C═N double bond. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 41.3 (5)°. The bond lengths and angles are as expected for a compound of this type and agree with the other ligands belonging to the hydrazone series, mentioned above. The C8═N3 and C7═O1 bond lengths of 1.287 (3) and 1.238 (3) Å, respectively, conform to the values for double bonds. Whereas the C1—N1, C7—N2, C10—O2 and N2—N3 [1.367 (3), 1.370 (3), 1.355 (3) and 1.368 (3) Å, respectively] bond lengths correspond to a single bond. In the crystal packing, it is noted that amino H (H1A, H1B) and amide H2A are involved in forming intermolecular N—H···O and N—H···Cl hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2 and Table 1), linking the molecules into a three-dimensional supramolecular structure. In addition, neighbouring molecules are also interact through weak C—H···π stacking interactions, Table 1.
