Abstract
The title Schiff base compound, C16H14N2O2, has been synthesized by the reaction of 5-amino-3,4-dimethylisoxazole and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde. The dihedral angle between the isoxazole ring and the napthyl ring system is 3.29 (7)°. The molecule adopts an E configuration about the central C=N double bond. Intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonding generates an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal structure, π–π interactions are observed involving the isoxazole ring and the substituted benzene ring of the naphthyl unit, with centroid–centroid distances of 3.5200 (10) Å.

The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry
