Abstract
The title compound, N-salicylidene-2-hydroxy-5-bromobenzylamine, was synthesized and the crystal structure was determined by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method at 90 K. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a = 11.3923(17)Å, b = 12.7998(19)Å, c = 8.6342(13)Å, β = 97.097(3)°, V = 1249.4(3)Å3, Dx = 1.628 g/cm3, and Z = 4. The R1 [I > 2σ(I)] and wR2 (all data) values are 0.0284 and 0.0693, respectively, for all 2852 independent reflections. The molecule is bent with a dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings of 66.05(6)°.
