(E)-2-Methoxy-6-[(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl)iminomethyl]phenol

Abstract

In the title molecule, C12H12N2O3, the benzene and isoxazole rings form a dihedral angle of 5.9 (6)°. The hydroxy group is involved in an intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond [O...N = 2.616 (5) Å], resulting in approximate planarity of the molecular skeleton. In the crystal structure, molecules related by translation along the c axis are stacked into columns, the shortest intermolecular C...C distance being 3.298 (6) Å.
