(E)-2-[(2-Hydr-oxy-5-nitro-phen-yl)iminiometh-yl]phenolate.


ABSTRACT: In the title mol-ecule, C(13)H(10)N(2)O(4), the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzene and phenolate rings is 21.6?(4)°. The nitro O atoms are twisted slightly out of the plane of the ring to which the nitro group is attached [dihedral angle 8.4?(3)°]. The amine group forms an intra-molecular hydrogen bond with both nearby O atoms. An extended ? delocalization throughout the entire mol-ecule exists producing a zwitterionic effect in this region of the mol-ecule. The shortened C-O bond [1.2997?(15)?Å] in concert with the slightly longer C-OH bond [1.3310?(16)?Å] provide evidence for this effect. The crystal packing is influenced by strong inter-molecular O-H?O hydrogen bonding. As a result, mol-ecules are linked into an infinite zigzag chain running along the b axis. A MOPAC PM3 calculation provides support to these observations.
