2-{(E)-[(3-Iodo-4methylphenyl)imino]methyl}-4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenol

Abstract

The title compound, C15H11F3INO 2, adopts the enol-imine tautomeric form. The molecule displays an E conformation with respect to the imine C=N double bond. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 12.4 (2)°. The molecular conformation is stabilized by an intramolecular O - H?N hydrogen bond, which generates an S(6) ring motif. The trifluoromethoxyphenyl group is disordered over two sites with an occupancy ratio of 0.621 (6):0.379 (6). The crystal structure features C - H?? interactions. © 2012 International Union of Crystallography.
