(iE)-2-methoxy-6-[(2-trifluoromethylphenylimino)methyl]phenol

Abstract

The title compound, C15H12NO2F3, adopts the phenol-imine tautomeric form. The two aromatic rings are twisted with respect to each other, with a dihedral angle of 17.83 (19)degrees. O-H center dot center dot center dot N andO-H center dot center dot center dot F intramolecular interactions are found in the molecule, and the solid-state structure is stabilized by intermolecular C-H center dot center dot center dot O and C-H center dot center dot center dot F hydrogen bonds, to form a two-dimensional network.
