Popis: In the ortho­rhom­bic crystal form, the mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into supra­molecular chains propagating along the b-axis direction.
The title Schiff base compound, C15H13NO2, crystallizes in a new crystal form in the space group P212121, which is different from the monoclinic P21/n space group reported previously [De et al. (2009 ▸). Indian J. Chem. Sect. B, 48, 595–598]. An intra­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond occurs between the hy­droxy and azomethine moieties. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into supra­molecular chains propagating along the b-axis direction with a C(8) graph-set motif. The contribution of these two contacts in Hirshfeld surface area are around 19 and 21%, respectively. The title compound was screened for its anti­bacterial activity against two gram-negative (Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium) and one gram-positive (Staphyloccus aureus) bacteria. The results of this study reveal that this Schiff base shows good activity against only one bacterium, i.e. Salmonella typhimurium.
