Molecular structure and density functional modelling studies of 2-[(E)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyliminomethyl]phenol

“…Not only have a large number of transition metal and the group 13 element complexes of 2-hydroxy Schiff bases become the topic of contemporary research in the field of coordination chemistry [1][2][3], but also the 2-hydroxy Schiff bases and their transition metal complexes exhibit a wide range of applications, especially in biological systems [4,5].…”

“…The appearance of these forms in 2-hydroxy salicylaldimines separately or jointly depends on the media as well as stereochemistry of the compounds and the N-substituents which provide different electron-donating or withdrawing systems [15,16]. Therefore, it has a crucial importance to investigate 2-hydroxy salicylaldimine Schiff bases by considering [4,[16][17][18][19][20]. In the present work, the 2-[(E)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyliminomethyl]phenol, consisting salicylaldehyde and tyramine, which is a naturally occurring monoamine compound and trace amine derived from the amino acid tyrosine [21] has been prepared and studied by experimental (MS, FT-IR, NMR and X-ray diffraction) and computational [density functional theory (DFT)] methods from the point of the tautomerism in solution and the solid state.…”
