N′-(5-Bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-3,4,5-trihydroxybenzohydrazide dihydrate

Abstract

The title compound, C14H11BrN2O5·2H2O, crystallizes as hydrogen-bonded sheets. The 2-hydroxy group on the benzylidene group forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond to the N atom of the C=N double bond. The amino N atom is a hydrogen-bond donor to a water molecule. The hydroxy group on the benzohydrazide group is a hydrogen-bond donor to one acceptor site, whereas each water molecule is a hydrogen-bond donor to two acceptor sites.
