title: 1-(Hydroxy-imino-meth-yl)-2-naphthol.
abstract: The title compound, C(11)H(9)NO(2), was prepared by a condens-ation reaction of 2-hydr-oxy-1-naphthaldehyde with hydroxyl-ammonium chloride in refluxing ethanol. An intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond is observed. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular O-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen-bond inter-actions result in a two-dimensional network.
