Description
Summary:The title Schiff base compound, C20H14ClNO2, adopts an E configuration about the azomethine bond. The phenol and chlorobenzene rings form dihedral angles of 84.71 (9) and 80.70 (8)°, respectively, with the phenyl ring and are twisted by 15.32 (8)° with respect to one another. The molecular conformation is stabilized by an intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond, which forms an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming columns parallel to the a axis.
