Abstract:
The title compound, C11H9N3O2, exists in the E conformation
with respect to the azomethane C N bond, and has the keto
form. There are two independent molecules in the asymmetric
unit and each of these features a slight slanting of the pyridine
and furan rings, which form a dihedral angle of 14.96 (10) in
one of the molecules and 5.53 (10) in the other. The crystal
structure is stabilized by N—H O and N—H N hydrogen
bonds, weak C—H O and C—H N hydrogen bonds and
C—H interactions and – interactions [shortest
