(E)-3-[(4-Butyl-phen-yl)imino-meth-yl]benzene-1,2-diol.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(17)H(19)NO(2), exists as an enol-imine tautomer. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 4.6 (2)°. The mol-ecular structure is stabilized by intramol-ecular O-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds which generate S(5) and S(6) ring motifs, respectively. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into centrosymmetric dimers by pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. In addition, C-H⋯π inter-actions involving both benzene rings are observed.
