Abstract:
The title compound, C16H17NO, is a Schiff base that exists in the enol-imine tautomeric form and adopts a Z configuration. The mol-ecule is non-planar, with the twisted rings making a dihedral angle of 39.92 (4)°. The intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond forms an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯π inter-actions and very weak π-π stacking inter-actions also help to consolidate the crystal packing. A Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed to investigate the contributions of different inter-molecular contacts within the supra-molecular structure. The major contributions are from H⋯H (65%), C⋯H (19.2%) and O⋯H (6.6%) inter-actions.

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.
