title: 2-Meth-oxy-N'-(2-methoxy-benzyl-idene)benzohydrazide.
abstract: The title Schiff base compound, C(16)H(16)N(2)O(3), was derived from the condensation of 2-methoxy-benzaldehyde with 2-methoxy-benzohydrazide in an ethanol solution. The dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings is 87.5 (3)°. In the crystal structure, the mol-ecules are linked into chains running parallel to the a axis by inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
