The asymmetric unit of the title hydrated salt, C22H25N2 (+)·C6H4ClO3S(-)·H2O, comprises two 2-[4-(di-ethyl-amino)-styr-yl]-1-methyl-quinolin-1-ium cations, two 4-chloro-benzene-sul-fon-ate anions and two solvent water mol-ecules. One ethyl group of both cations displays disorder over two positions in a 0.659 (2):0.341 (2) ratio in one mol-ecule and in a 0.501 (2):0.499 (2) ratio in the other. The sulfonate group of one anion is also disordered over two positions in a 0.893 (7):0.107 (7) ratio. The dihedral angle between the mean plane of the quinolinium ring system and that of benzene ring is 10.57 (18)° in one cation and 14.4 (2)° in the other. In the crystal, cations, anions and water mol-ecules are linked into chains along the [010] direction by O-H⋯Osulfonate hydrogen bonds, together with weak C-H⋯Osulfonate and C-H⋯Cl inter-actions. The cations are stacked by π-π inter-actions, with centroid-centroid distances in the range 3.675 (2)-4.162 (3) Å.
There are two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C16H17NO4, with similar conformations but some differences in their bond angles. Each mol-ecule adopts a trans configuration with respect to the methyl-idene C=N bond and is twisted with a dihedral angle between the two substituted benzene rings of 80.52 (7)° in one mol-ecule and 83.53 (7)° in the other. All meth-oxy groups are approximately coplanar with the attached benzene rings, with Cmeth-yl-O-C-C torsion angles ranging from -6.7 (2) to 5.07 (19)°. In the crystal, independent mol-ecules are linked together by O-H⋯N and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and a π-π inter-action [centroid-centroid distance of 3.6030 (9) Å], forming a dimer. The dimers are further linked by weak C-H⋯O inter-actions and another π-π inter-action [centroid-centroid distance of 3.9452 (9) Å] into layers lying parallel to the ab plane.
In the title hydrated molecular salt, C22H25N2 (+)·C6H4FO3S(-)·H2O, the cation displays whole mol-ecule disorder over two sets of sites in a 0.780 (5):0.220 (5) ratio. The quinolinium ring system is essentially planar, with r.m.s. deviations of 0.0162 and 0.0381 Å for the major and minor disorder components, respectively. The dihedral angles between the mean plane of the quinolinium ring system and the benzene ring are 5.1 (3) and 7.7 (11)°, respectively, for the major and minor components in the cation. In the crystal, cations, anions and water mol-ecules are linked into chains along [010] by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and are further connected into a three-dimensional network by weak C-H⋯O and C-H⋯F inter-actions. In addition, π-π inter-actions with centroid-centroid distances of 3.634 (3), 3.702 (5) and 3.838 (5) Å are observed.
The title aza-stilbene derivative, C14H13NO2 {systematic name: (E)-2-[(4-meth-oxy-benzyl-idene)amino]-phenol}, is a product of the condensation reaction between 4-meth-oxy-benzaldehyde and 2-amino-phenol. The mol-ecule adopts an E conformation with respect to the azomethine C=N bond and is almost planar, the dihedral angle between the two substituted benzene rings being 3.29 (4)°. The meth-oxy group is coplanar with the benzene ring to which it is attached, the Cmeth-yl-O-C-C torsion angle being -1.14 (12)°. There is an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond generating an S(5) ring motif. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming zigzag chains along [10-1]. The chains are linked via C-H⋯π inter-actions, forming a three-dimensional structure.
