(E)-2,4-Dichloro-6-{1-[(2-chloro-eth-yl)imino]-eth-yl}phenol
Abstract:
The title Schiff base compound, C(10)H(10)Cl(3)NO, was prepared by the condensation of 1-(3,5-dichloro-2-hy-droxy-phen-yl)ethanone with chloro-ethyl-amine. The imine adopts an E configuration with respect to the C=N bond. The H atom of the phenolic OH group is disordered over two positions with site occupation factors of 0.52 (7) and 0.48 (7), respectively, and the major occupancy component is involved in an intramolecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond. The compound therefore exists in an iminium-phenolate as well as in the imino-phenol form. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected by C-H⋯O and C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and Cl⋯Cl inter-actions [3.7864 (9) Å] into a three-dimensional network. In addition, inter-molecular π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid distance = 4.4312 (9) Å] are observed.

Structure and Nomenclature of Alcohols and Phenols
Alcohols are one of the most important functional groups in organic chemistry. The name of alcohol comes from the hydrocarbon from which it is derived. Alcohols are organic molecules containing the functional hydroxyl or –OH group directly bonded to carbon. Phenols have an OH group directly attached to a benzene ring. While alcohols are colorless, phenol is a white crystalline compound with a characteristic "hospital smell" odor.

Structure and Nomenclature of Ethers
Ethers are organic compounds with an ether functional group which is characterized by an oxygen atom connected to two — identical or different — alkyl, aryl, or vinyl groups. The C–O–C linkage in dimethyl ether — the simplest ether — has an approximately tetrahedral bond angle of 110.3 degrees. The oxygen atom is sp3- hybridized, with the C–O distance being about 140 pm.
Classification of Ethers
Based on their attached substituent groups, ethers can be classified into two...
