Synthesis and Crystal Structure of N'-[(2-Hydroxyphenyl)methylidene]-2-(2-nitrophenoxy)acetohydrazide

Abstract

The crystal structure of N'-[(2-hydroxyphenyl)methylidene]-2-(2-nitrophenoxy)acetohydrazide has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction method. The crystal belongs to orthorhombic system, space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with unit cell constants a = 7.3692, b = 7.5657, c = 26.0983 Å, V = 1455.06 ų, Z = 4, D_c = 1.439 g/cm³, μ = 0.11 mm^–1, F(000) = 656, R and wR are 0.0661 and 0.2655 respectively for 1502 unique reflections with 833 observed reflections (I > 2s(I)). The molecules are interconnected into chains along the b axis by C₅-H_5A···O₅ and C₇-H_7B···O₄ intermolecular interactions.
