(E)-4-Amino-N'-(2-hydroxy-5-methoxy-benzylidene)benzohydrazide monohydrate

In the title compound, C15H15N3O3 center dot H2O, the hydazide Schiff base molecule shows an E conformation around the C = N bond. An intramolecular O-H center dot center dot center dot N hydrogen bond makes an S(6) ring motif. The dihedral angle between the substituted phenyl rings is 23.40 (11)degrees. The water molecule mediates linking of neighbouring molecules through O-H center dot center dot center dot (O, O) hydrogen bonds into infinite chains along the a axis, which are further connected together through N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional network parallel to (001). C-H center dot center dot center dot O interactions aso occur.
