In the title compound, C15H11F3N2O4, the N=C bond of the central imine group adopts an E conformation. The dihedral angle between two benzene rings is 6.2 (2)°. There is an intramolecular bifurcated O—H⋯(N,O) hydrogen bond with S(6) and S(9) ring motifs. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a helical chain along the 31 screw axis parallel to c. The –CF3 group shows rotational disorder over two sites, with occupancies of 0.39 (2) and 0.61 (2).
Keywords: crystal structure; Schiff base; hydrogen bonding.

The title compound was prepared by refluxing a mixture of a solution containing 2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzaldehyde (0.014 g, 0.082 mmol) and a solution containing 2-methoxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)aniline (0,016 g, 0.082 mmol) in 20 ml ethanol. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h under reflux. Single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained from an ethanol solution by slow evaporation (yield 54%, m.p. 475–477 K).
All H atoms were placed in calculated positions and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.93 or 0.96 Å and O—H = 0.82 Å. The isotropic displacement parameters of the H atoms were fixed at 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(O, Cmethyl). The CF3 group showed rotational disorder. The site occupancy factors are 0.39 (2) and 0.61 (2) for F1A–F3A and F1B–F3B, 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. |

Schiff base compounds can be classified by their photochromic and thermochromic characteristics (Hadjoudis et al., 1987). Schiff bases are potentially biologically active compounds and the antifungal, anticancer, anticonvulsant, diuretic and cytotoxic activities have been reported. For the development of bacteriostatic activity, it is believed that the presence of a nitro group in the p-position is an important condition (Tarafder et al., 2002; Santos et al., 2001). In this study we report the structure of the title compound (I).
The N1═C7 bond length is 1.295 (5) Å, approximately equal to previously reported C═N bond lengths (Karadayı et al., 2003; Faridbod et al., 2008; Karadayı et al., 2013). The geometric parameters in (I) are comparable with the similar reported structures (Raja et al., 2008; Karadayı et al., 2006). The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings (C1–C6) and (C8–C13) is 6.2 (2)°. The CF3 group showed rotational disorder. The site occupancy factors are 0.39 (2) and 0.61 (2) for F1A–F3A and F1B–F3B, respectively. An intramolecular bifurcated O—H···(N, O) hydrogen bond is observed (Table 1 and Fig. 1).
