(E)-2-Ethoxy-6-[(4-Ethoxy-Phen-yl)Imino-Methyl]Phenol

Abstract

In the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C<inf>17</inf>H <inf>19</inf>NO<inf>3</inf>, there are three independent mol-ecules, which are align nearly parallel to each other and adopt the phenol-imine tautomeric form. In each mol-ecule, an intra-molecular O - H⋯N hydrogen bond results in the formation of an S(6) ring motif. The dihedral angles between the aromatic rings in the three independent mol-ecules are 13.55 (2), 21.24 (2) and 46.26 (1)°. C - H⋯π inter-actions are also observed in the crystal structure.
