Background:

• Understanding molecular interactions is crucial in chemistry.
• Crystal structure analysis provides insights into intermolecular forces.
• Hydrogen bonding significantly influences material properties.

Purpose of the Study:

• To elucidate the crystal structure of the title molecule C(12)H(10)N(2)O(3).
• To investigate the dihedral angle between aromatic and furan rings.
• To characterize the hydrogen bonding network within the crystal lattice.

Main Methods:

• Single-crystal X-ray diffraction was employed.
• Analysis of bond lengths, bond angles, and dihedral angles.
• Identification and analysis of intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds.

Main Results:

• The molecule C(12)H(10)N(2)O(3) exhibits a dihedral angle of 8.89(1)° between its aromatic and furan rings.
• An intramolecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond was identified.
• Intermolecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds form zigzag chains along the c axis in the crystal structure.

Conclusions:

• The crystal packing is governed by specific hydrogen bonding interactions.
• The observed dihedral angle suggests a near-planar conformation between the ring systems.
• The study provides a detailed structural characterization of the title compound.
