2-[(E)-(2,4-Dimethyl-phen-yl)imino-meth-yl]phenol.

ABSTRACT

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(15)H(15)NO, contains two independent mol-ecules, both of which exist in trans configurations with respect to the C=N bonds [1.278 (2) and 1.279 (2) Å]. In each mol-ecule, intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds generate S(6) ring motifs. In one mol-ecule, the benzene rings form a dihedral angle of 13.38 (9)°, while in the other mol-ecule the dihedral angle is 30.60 (10)°. In the crystal, the two independent mol-ecules are linked via weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
