(E)-2-(4-Benz­yloxy-2-hy­droxy­benzyl­idene)-N-methyl­hydrazinecarbo­thio­amide

The mol­ecule of the title compound, C₁₆H₁₇N₃O₂S, adopts an E conformation with respect to the azomethine C=N bond. The hydrazinecarbo­thio­amide fragment is close to planar, with a largest deviation from the least-squares plane of 0.079 (2) Å for the hydrazide N atom. This fragment forms a dihedral angle of 9.43 (9)° with the central benzene ring. The benzene rings are inclined to one another by 67.55 (12)°. The mol­ecular conformation is stabilized by an intra­molecular O—H...N hydrogen bond involving the azomethine N atom. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked through weak N—H...S and N—H...O hydrogen bonds into double ribbons along [010]. The crystal packing also features C—H...π inter­actions.
