Description
Summary:The title Schiff base compound, C14H12ClNO, was prepared from 4-chlorobenzylamine and salicylaldehyde. The molecule is V-shaped: the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 67.51 (5)°. The rings are located on the opposite side of the C=N bond, giving an E configuration. An intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond generates a S(6) ring. In the crystal structure, only weak non-classical C—H...O contacts are observed.
