Abstract:
In the title compound, C(16)H(15)BrN(2)O(4)·H(2)O, the hydrazide mol-ecule is nearly planar, with a largest deviation from the mean plane through the non-H atoms of 0.106 (4) Å and a dihedral angle between the benzene rings of 1.98 (16)°. This mol-ecule adopts an E conformation about the C=N bond and an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond increases the rigidity. In the crystal, some mol-ecules of the title hydrazide are replaced by mol-ecules of its 6-bromo isomer, and the Br atom from this admixture mol-ecule was refined to give a partial occupancy of 0.0523 (13). The hydrazide and water mol-ecules are linked through classical N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to (110). C-H⋯π inter-actions are also present.

Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
