Abstract
The crystal structure of 3-hydroxysalicylaldehyde benzoylhydrazone was analyzed. The planar conformation of the salicylaldehyde-benzoyl-hydrazone class of Schiff bases originated from water molecules that stabilized the structures. 3-hydroxysalicylaldehyde benzoylhydrazone possessed a 3-hydroxy substituent that was capable of stabilization, but the compound did not contain water. Meanwhile, the amido H atom formed a short hydrogen bond with the amido O atom of an adjacent molecule to give rise to a linear chain running along the shortest axis of the orthorhombic unit cell.
