(E)-1-(2,4-Dinitro-phen-yl)-2-[1-(3-meth-oxy-phen-yl)ethyl-idene]hydrazine.

ABSTRACT: There are two crystallographically independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(15)H(14)N(4)O(5), with different conformations for the meth-oxy groups. The mol-ecules are both slightly twisted, the dihedral angles between two benzene rings being 8.37 (18)° in one and 7.31 (18)° in the other. In both mol-ecules, the two nitro groups are essentially coplanar with their bound benzene ring, with the r.m.s. deviation of the dinitro-benzene plane being 0.0310 (3) Å in one mol-ecule and 0.0650 (3) Å in the other. In each mol-ecule, an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by weak C-H⋯O inter-actions and stacked along the a axis through π-π inter-actions, with centroid-centroid distances of 3.651 (2) and 3.
