Crystal structure ofN′-[bis(ethylsulfanyl)methylidene]-2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzohydrazide

Abstract

In the title compound, C13H18N2O3S2, the amide group is in the plane of the benzoyl ring with a C—N—N—C torsion angle of 177.63 (12)°. The two dithioate groups are in ananticonformation [torsion angles = 173.68 (8) and −9.98 (10)°]. An intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond is observed. In the crystal, an O—H...O hydrogen bond and a weak C—H...O contact involving the same acceptor atom generate anS(6) ring motif and give rise to chains along [010].
