title: (E)-Methyl 2-({2-eth-oxy-6-[(E)-(hy-droxy-imino)-meth-yl]phen-oxy}meth-yl)-3-phenyl-acrylate.
abstract: In the title compound, C(20)H(21)NO(5), the dihedral angle between the mean planes through the two rings is 47.1 (8)°. The enoate group assumes an extended conformation. The hy-droxy-ethanimine group is essentially coplanar with the benzene ring, the largest deviation from the mean plane being 0.061 (1) Å for the O atom. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into cyclic centrosymmetric dimers with an R(2) (2)(6) motif via pairs of O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds. Inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds form a C(8) chain along the b axis. The crystal packing is further stabilized by C-H⋯π inter-actions.
