6,6′-Dimeth­oxy-2,2′-[4,5-dimethyl-o-phenyl­enebis(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]diphenol monohydrate

In the title compound, C(24)H(24)N(2)O(4)·H(2)O, the dihedral angles between the central benzene ring and the two outer benzene rings of the Schiff base are 65.06 (9) and 3.02 (9)°. Strong intra­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds generate S(6) ring motifs. The H atoms of the water mol­ecule act as donors in the formation of bifurcated O—H⋯(O,O) inter­molecular hydrogen bonds with the O atoms of the hydr­oxy and meth­oxy groups with R (1) (2)(5) ring motifs; these may influence the mol­ecular conformation.
