Indol-3-yl-acetylhydrazine (0.30 g, 1.6 mmol) and indol-3-ylcarboxaldehyde (0.20 g, 1.6 mmol) were heated in ethanol (50 ml) for 2 h. The solution was
filtered; slow evaporation of the solvent yielded faint yellow needles of (I).
Anomalouse dispersion was negligible and Friedel pairs were merged before
refinement. All hydrogen atoms were located in difference Fourier maps, and
were refined with distance restraints C—H = 1.00±0.01 Å and N–H =
0.88±0.01 Å. Their Uiso values were freely refined. Friedel pairs
were merged.
Structure description
top
A previous study reported
2'-[(5-chloro-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene]-2-(1H-indol-3-yl)acetohydrazide, a compound that is N–H···O hydrogen bonded into a
three-dimensional network (Ali et al., 2007). Although there are three
possible donor sites, the site belonging to the indolyl ring that is linked to
the methylene unit is not involved in the H bond interactions. A similar type
of hydrogen bonding (Table 1) is found in the unsubstituted title compound,
(I), (Fig. 1).
For a related crystal structure, see Ali et al. (2007).

A previous study reported 2'-[(5-chloro-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene]-2-(1H-indol-3-yl)acetohydrazide, a compound that is N–H···O hydrogen bonded into a three-dimensional network (Ali et al., 2007). Although there are three possible donor sites, the site belonging to the indolyl ring that is linked to the methylene unit is not involved in the H bond interactions. A similar type of hydrogen bonding (Table 1) is found in the unsubstituted title compound, (I), (Fig. 1).
