In the title Schiff-base type compound, C18H13N3O5, the central furan ring makes dihedral angles of 12.80 (7) and 51.43 (4)° with the terminal benzene rings. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 45.43 (3)°. In the crystal, C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into layers parallel to (010). In addition, there are π–π stacking interactions within the layer [centroid–centroid distance = 3.584 (1) Å] and between the layers [centroid–centroid distance 3.751 (1) Å].

The title compound was prepared by refluxing a mixture containing 5-(4-nitrophenyl)furan-2 carbaldehyde (0.011 g 0.051 mmol) and 2-methyl-3-nitroaniline (0.0077 g 0.051 mmol) in 40 ml of ethanol. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h under reflux. The crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained from ethanol by slow evaporation (yield 62%; m.p: 471–474 K).
All H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model with C–H = 0.93–0.96 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2 or 1.5 Ueq(C). A rotating-group model was applied for the methyl groups.

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 have been very important as ligands in the area of coordination chemistry. These ligands and their metal complexes have shown important activity in the field of biology in the past years. Several new examples have been tested for their antitumor, antimicrobial, anticancer and antibacterial activities (Ali et al., 2002; Ghorab et al., 2010; Tarafder et al., 2002; Vijesh et al., 2010). In view of these facts, the aim of this present study is to obtain a structure of the Schiff base, 2-methyl-3-nitro-N-{(E)-[5-(4-nitrophenyl)furan-2-yl]methylideneaniline.
In the title compound (Fig 1), the molecule presents an E configuration with the 2-(4-nitrophenyl)furan group opposite to 1-methyl-2-nitrobenzene group about the N2 ═C11 double bond. This N2 ═C11 double bond distance [1.2783 (19) Å] is longer than the N ═C typical bond distance (Allen et al., 1987), probably due to π conjugation along all the molecule. The torsion angle is 171.79 (14) ° formed by C10—C11—N2—C12. All other bond lengths and angles are within normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987). The central furan ring (C7—C10/O3) is planar, with an r.m.s. deviation for fitted atoms of 0.0019 Å. This plane makes dihedral angles of 12.80 (7) and 51.43 (4) ° with the terminal benzene rings C1—C6 and C12—C17, respectively. The dihedral angle between the two benzene ring is 45.43 (3)°.
In the crystal, C—H···O intermolecular interactions are observed (Table 1) as well as π–π stacking interactions [Cg1···Cg3 (-x,1 - y,-z) = 3.584 (1) Å and Cg3···Cg3 (x, 1 + y, z) = 3.751 (1) Å, where Cg1(O3/C7—C10) and Cg3(C12—C17) are the centroids of the furan and benzene ring, respectively] (Fig. 2).
