5-Diethyl­amino-2-{[2-(2,4-dinitro­phen­yl)hydrazin-1-yl­idene]meth­yl}phenol

In the title compound, C(17)H(19)N(5)O(5), obtained from the condensation reaction of 4-diethyl­amino-2-hy­droxy­benzalde­hyde and 2,4-dinitro­phenyl­hydrazine, the two benzene rings are twisted by a dihedral angle of 1.75 (12)°. The nitro groups are slightly twisted with the respect to the benzene ring to which they are attached, making dihedral angles of 8.20 (15) and 5.78 (15)°. An intra­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond occurs. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by pairs of inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming dimers through R (2) (2)(12) rings. These dimers are further linked by C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π and weak slipped π–π inter­actions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.743 (2)Å]. One of the ethyl groups is disordered over two positions, with occupancy factors in the ratio 0.72:0.28.
