Abstract:
In the title complex, C6H12N4*C8H8O3, the hexamethylenetetramine molecule accepts a single intermolecular O-H...N hydrogen bond from the hydroxy group of the 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde moiety. The non-centrosymmetric crystal structure is built from alternating molecular sheets of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde and hexamethylenetetramine molecules, and is stabilized by intermolecular O-H...N, C-H...O and C-H...pi interactions.
