(E)-4-Chloro-2-{[4-(3,5-dichloropyridin-2-yloxy)phenylimino]methyl}phenol
Abstract
In the title molecule, C18H11Cl3N2O2, the central benzene ring is oriented at 8.44 (12) and 70.57 (11)° with respect to the terminal chlorophenol and dichloropyridine rings, respectively. The molecular structure is stabilized by an intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond, which generates an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, π–π stacking between parallel pyridine rings is observed [centroid–centroid distance = 3.6561 (14) Å].
