Conclusion
The structure of the azo dye compound C15H14N2O2 is stabilized by hydrogen bonds and exhibits a trans configuration.
Supporting Evidence
- The compound exhibits a trans configuration with a dihedral angle of 5.06° between the aromatic rings.
- Strong intramolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds stabilize the molecular conformation.
- Intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds are present in the crystal structure.
Takeaway
This study looks at a special dye made from two connected rings, showing how they stick together and their shape.
Methodology
The compound was synthesized and its crystal structure was analyzed using X-ray diffraction.
Limitations
The data completeness was slightly over 31% due to partially overlapped reflections.
