Comments on DFT calculation, biological activity, anion sensing studies and crystal structure of (E)-4-chloro-2-((pyridin-2-ylimino)-methyl)phenol by Nuray Yıldırım, Neslihan Demir, Gökhan Alpaslan, Bahadir Boyacıoğlu, Mustafa Yıldız, and Huseyin Ünver, published in the Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, Volume 83, Issue 6, 2018, pp. 707–721

Abstract

The crystal structure of (E)-4-chloro-2-((pyridin-2-ylimino)-methyl)phenol, recently published by Yıldırım et al. in J. Serb. Chem. Soc. 83 (2018) 707–721, is revised. Refinement of the new structural model against original X-ray diffraction data, deposited with the Cambridge Structural Data Centre, proved that the compound studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction was actually (E)-4-chloro-2-((pyridin-3-ylimino)methyl)phenol.
