title: N'-(2-Methoxy-benzyl-idene)nicotinohydrazide.
abstract: The title compound, C(14)H(13)N(3)O(2), was prepared by the reaction of 2-methoxy-benzyaldehyde with nicotinic acid hydrazide in methanol. The dihedral angle between the benzene and pyridine rings is 5.9 (3)°. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of chains along the c axis; adjacent chains are linked via C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds.
