Abstract:
In the title compound, C21H15Cl2NO2, the H atom of the -OH group is transferred to the N atom of the imine, forming a zwitterion. Thus, there is formation of a six-membered ring via an intra-molecular O⋯H-N, rather than O-H⋯N, hydrogen bond in the mol-ecule. The dihedral angle between the naphthalene ring system and the benzene ring of the 2H-chromen system is 87.41 (4)°. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are packed through N-H⋯O, π-π [centroid-centroid distances = 3.744 (3) and 3.780 (3) Å], C-Cl⋯π [Cl⋯centroid = 3.261 (3) Å], C-H⋯π and C-H⋯O inter-actions.
