title: N'-(2-Hydr-oxy-5-chloro-benzyl-idene)-4-nitro-benzohydrazide methanol solvate.
abstract: The title compound, C(14)H(10)ClN(3)O(4)·CH(4)O, was synthesized from the reaction of 5-chloro-salicylaldehyde with 4-nitro-benzohydrazide in methanol. The Schiff base mol-ecule is nearly planar, with a dihedral angle of 9.1 (3)° between the two benzene rings. The methanol solvent mol-ecules are linked to the Schiff base mol-ecules by N-H⋯O, O-H⋯N and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains running parallel to the a axis.
