Abstract(s)

The crystal structures of three salicyaldoxime compounds, namely 2-hy-droxy-4-methyl-benzaldehyde oxime, C8H9NO2, 1, 2,4-di-hydroxy-benzaldehyde oxime, C7H7NO3, 2, and 2-hy-droxy-4-meth-oxy-benzaldehyde oxime, C8H9NO3, 3, are discussed. In each compound, the hydroxyl groups are essentially coplanar with their attached phenyl group. The inter-planar angles between the C=N-O moieties of the oxime unit and their attached phenyl rings are 0.08 (9), 1.08 (15) and 6.65 (15)° in 1, 2 and 3, respectively. In all three mol-ecules, the 2-hy-droxy group forms an intra-molecular O-H⋯N(oxime) hydrogen bond. In compound (1), inter-molecular O-H(oxime)⋯O(hydrox-yl) hydrogen bonds generate R22(14) dimers, related by inversion centres. In compound 2, inter-molecular O-H(oxime)⋯O(4-hy-droxy) hydrogen bonds generate C9 chains along the b-axis direction, while O-H(4-hydrox-yl)⋯O(2-hydrox-yl) inter-actions form zigzag C6 spiral chains along the c-axis direction, generated by a screw axis at 1, y, 1/4: the combination of the two chains provides a bimolecular sheet running parallel to the b axis, which lies between 0-1/2 c and 1/2-1 c. In compound 3, similar C9 chains, along the b-axis direction are generated by O-H(oxime)⋯O(4-meth-oxy) hydrogen bonds. Further weaker, C-H⋯π (in 1), π-π (in 2) and both C-H⋯π and π-π inter-actions (in 3) further cement the three-dimensional structures. Hirshfeld surface and fingerprint analyses are discussed.
