The title Schiff base compound, C15H11F3N2O2·H2O, crystallized as a monohydrate. The conformation about the C=N bond isE. The molecule is almost planar, with the dihedral angle between the planes of the methoxybenzene and trifluorobenzylidene rings being 7.46 (6)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by bifurcated Owater—H...(O,N) hydrogen bonds and N—H...Owaterand Owater—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [100]. The chains are linked by C—H...Owaterhydrogen bonds, forming slabs parallel to thebcplane. Within the slabs there are offset π–π interactions present [intercentroid distance = 3.7883 (7) Å].
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
