2-{(E)-[(3-Iodo-4-Methyl-Phen-yl)imino]-Meth-yl}-4-(Trifluoro-Meth-oxy)phenol

Abstract

The title compound, C15H11F3INO2, adopts the enol-imine tautomeric form. The molecule displays an E conformation with respect to the imine C=N double bond. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 12.4 (2)degrees. The molecular conformation is stabilized by an intramolecular O-H center dot center dot center dot N hydrogen bond, which generates an S(6) ring motif. The trifluoromethoxyphenyl group is disordered over two sites with an occupancy ratio of 0.621 (6): 0.379 (6). The crystal structure features C-H center dot center dot center dot center dot interactions.
