(E)-2-Methyl-6-[(p-Tolylimino)methyl]-Phenol

Abstract

The title compound, C15H15NO, adopts the enol-imine tautomeric form. There are two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit, with the two aromatic rings inclined at 14.94 (9) and 26.53 (5)degrees. The structure is stabilized by O-H center dot center dot center dot N intermolecular hydrogen bonds and C-H center dot center dot center dot pi interactions.
