N′-[(E)-4-Hydroxybenzylidene]-2-(naphthalen-2-yloxy)acetohydrazide

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C19H16N2O3, contains two independent molecules in which the dihedral angles between the naphthalene ring system and the benzene ring are 10.0 (1) and 35.3 (1)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional framework parallel to (001). Weak C—H...O and C—H...N hydrogen bonds complete a three-dimensional network
