In the title compound, C17H18N2O4, the azomethine double bond adopts an E conformation with an N—N—C—C torsion angle of −178.3 (3)°. The benzene rings are almost coplaner, with a dihedral angle of 2.98 (14)° between their mean planes. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, resulting in chains of molecules lying parallel to the b axis. The structure is further consolidated by rather weak C—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interactions, resulting in six-membered rings about inversion centers linked into chains arranged parallel to the b axis.

The title compound was synthesized by refluxing a mixture of 4-methoxybenzohydrazide (0.332 g, 2.0 mmol) and 3,4-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (0.332 g, 2.0 mmol) and a catalytical amount of acetic acid for 3 h in methanol (20 ml). The progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC. After completion of the reaction, the solvent was evaporated by vacuum to afford the title compound (0.496 g, 79% yield). The compound was recrystalize by slow evaporation of a methanol solution to afforded light yellow crystals suitable for single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. All chemicals were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich Germany.
All C-bound H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.93 and 0.98 Å, for aryl and methyl H-atoms, respectively; a rotating group model was applied to the methyl groups. The Uiso(H) were allowed at 1.5Ueq(C methyl) or 1.2Ueq(C non-methyl). The H atom on the nitrogen was located from a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically.

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. |

Benzohydrazones play an imperative part in research due to their diverse structural features and wide range of biological activities such as antibacterial, antifungal, cytotoxic, anticonvulsant, antiplatelets, anticancer, antinflammatory, and analgesic (Bayrak et al., 2009). The title compound was prepared as a part of our ongoing research on benzohydrazones in order to study their structural features responsible for varoius biological activities.
In the title molecule (Fig. 1), the azomethine double bond (C7═N1, 1.277 (4) Å) adopts an E configuration with a torsion angle N2–N1–C6–C7 -178.3 (3)°. The benzene rings (C1–C6 and C9–C14) are almost coplanner with dihedral angle 2.98 (14)° between their mean planes. The bond lengths and angles in the title compound are similar to those reported in structurally realted compounds (Fun et al., 2011; Lu et al., 2009). The crystal structure is stabilized by N2—H2A···O3 intermolecular hydrogen bonds resulting in chains of molecules lying parallel to the b–axis (Tab. 1 & Fig. 2). The structure is further consolidated by rather weak intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions C15—H15A···O4 and C17—H17A···O2, the former resulting in six membered rings about inversion centers and the later forming chains arranged parallel to the b-axis.
