N′-(5-Bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-4-nitrobenzohydrazide methanol monosolvate
Abstract
In the title compound, C14H10BrN3O4·CH4O, the benzohydrazide molecule is nearly planar [maximum deviation = 0.110 (2) Å]. The mean planes of the two benzene rings make a dihedral angle of 8.4 (3)°. In the benzohydrazide molecule, there is an intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond and the NH group is hydrogen bonded to the methanol solvent molecule. In the crystal, intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds involving the methanol solvent molecule link the benzohydrazide molecules to form chains which propagate along the a axis.
