description

The molecule of the title Schiff base compound, C14H14N2O2, displays anEconformation with respect the imine C=N double bond. The molecule is approximately planar, with the dihedral angle formed by the planes of the pyridine and benzene rings being 5.72 (6)°. There is an intramolecular hydrogen bond involving the phenolic H and imine N atoms.
