title: (E)-3-Bromo-N'-(4-methoxy-benzyl-idene)benzohydrazide methanol solvate.
abstract: The title compound, C(15)H(13)BrN(2)O(2)·CH(3)OH, was synthesized by the reaction of 4-methoxy-benzaldehyde with an equimolar quantity of 3-bromo-benzohydrazide in methanol. The benzohydrazide mol-ecule displays an E configuration about the C=N bond. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 4.0 (2)°. The benzohydrazide and methanol mol-ecules are linked into a chain propagating along the b axis by O-H⋯O, O-H⋯N, N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
