The non-H atoms of the Schiff base molecule are approximately coplanar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.043 ) and the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 1.6 (1)<. The molecule adopts an E configuration with respect to the C=N double bond. An intramolecular O!H...O hydrogen bond is observed. The Schiff base and methanol molecules are linked into a two-dimensional network parallel to (10overline{1}) by intermolecular N!H...O, O!H...N and O!H...O hydrogen bonds. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536809035752
