[(Z)-2-(3-Methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)-2-(1-naphthyl)ethenylamino]formaldehyde oxime 1,4-dioxane hemisolvate
In the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C16H14N4O2·0.5C4H8O2, there are two crystallographically independent oxime molecules and one solvent molecule. Each oxime molecule has intramolecular N—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds, which make the non-H atoms approximately coplanar except for the naphthyl groups. The two independent molecules are connected to each other by O—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming a dimer. Dimers are linked into a layer through C—H...O, C—H...N and C—H...π interactions. There is π-stacking of approximately parallel oxadiazole rings, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.6234 (9) Å and a dihedral angle of 8.90 (6)°. Dioxane C and H atoms are disordered over two sites each, with occupancy factors of ca 0.78:0.22.
