The dihedral angle formed by the two benzene rings is 80.85 (2)¡ã. Strong intramolecular O¡ªH...N and C¡ªH...O hydrogen bonds help to establish the molecular conformation. There are also weak intermolecular ¦Ð¨C¦Ð stacking interactions between neighbouring benzene rings [centroid¨Ccentroid separation = 3.502 (3) ]. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S160053680803136X
