2-[(E)-(2-Chloro-phen-yl)imino-meth-yl]-6-methyl-phenol.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(14)H(12)ClNO, a Schiff base derived from 3-methyl-salicyl-aldehyde, crystallizes in the phenol-imine tautomeric form with an E conformation for the imine functionality. The mol-ecule is not planar, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings being 36.38 (5)°. The hy-droxy H atom is involved in a strong intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond, generating an S(6) ring.
