(E)-2-{[2-(2-Hydroxyethylamino)ethylimino]methyl}phenol

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C11H16N2O2, contains two independent conformational isomers which show intramolecular aromatic–imine O—H...N hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, neighboring molecules are linked through intermolecular aliphatic–aliphatic O—H...N, aliphatic–aromatic N—H...O and C—H...O interactions into hydrogen-bonded layers parallel to the ab plane.
