Crystal structure of (E)-4-hydroxy-N′-(3-hydroxybenzylidene)benzohydrazide monohydrate
In the title benzohydrazide hydrate, C14H12N2O3·H2O, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 58.11 (6)° and the C=O and N—H groups adopt anantiorientation. The main twist in the molecule occurs about the C(=O)—Car(ar = aromatic) bond, with an N—C(=O)—Car—Cartorsion angle of −43.5 (2)°. In the crystal, the components are linked by N—H...O, O—H...N and O—H...O hydrogen bonds. These interactions generate [10-1] chains, with adjacent organic molecules linked by inversion symmetry generating either pairs of N—H...O links [R22(16) loops] or pairs of O—H...O links [R22(20) loops]. Pairs of water molecules are located in theR22(20) loops and form their own O—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds to adjacent organic molecules in the chain. Finally, an interchain O—H...O hydrogen-bond link from the 4-hydroxy group generates (010) sheets.
