4-Bromo-2-[({2-[(2-hy-droxy-eth-yl)amino]-eth-yl}imino)-meth-yl]phenol.

The new title Schiff base compound, CHBrNO, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group 2 with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. It was prepared by the condensation reaction of 5-bromo-2-hy-droxy-benzaldehyde and amino-ethyl-ethano-lamine. There is an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond with an (6) ring motif. Moreover, there are inter-molecular C-H⋯N, C-H⋯O and Br⋯O inter-actions in the crystal structure of the title compound.
