3,3′-[(1E,1′E)-Hydrazine-1,2-diylidenebis(ethan-1-yl-1-ylidene)]bis(4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one)
Abstract
The title compound, C16H16N2O6, lies about an inversion centre at the mid-point of the N—N bond. The molecule features two intramolecular O—H...N and two C—H...O hydrogen bonds, each of which forms an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds into infinite zigzag chains propagating along the c-axis direction. π–π stacking interactions between the pyrone rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.975 (2) Å] stack the molecules along b.
