2-Meth-oxy-6-[(Z)-[(5-methyl-2-pyrid-yl)imino-meth-yl]phenol.

The title compound, C(14)H(14)N(2)O(2), was obtained by a condensation reaction between o-vanillin and 5-methyl-pyridin-2-amine. In the mol-ecule, the dihedral angle between the pyridine and benzene rings is 9.08 (13)°. An intra-molecular hydrogen bond involving the imine N atom and the hydroxyl group may influence the conformation of the mol-ecule. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
