title: (E,E)-4,4'-Dichloro-2,2'-[azinobis(phenyl-methyl-idyne)]diphenol.
abstract: The title compound, C(26)H(18)Cl(2)N(2)O(2), was synthesized by the reaction of (5-chloro-2-hydroxy-phen-yl)(phen-yl)methanone with hydrazine hydrate. The mol-ecule possesses a crystallographically imposed centre of symmetry at the mid-point of the N-N bond. The conformation of the mol-ecule is stabilized by an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond.
