Abstract
In the title compound, C20H18N4·CH3COOH, the benzene ring forms dihedral angles of 81.34 (11) and 54.32 (11)° with the two pyridine rings. In the crystal, intermolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonding links one 1,5-benzodiazepine molecule and one acetic acid solvent molecule into a dimer. These dimers, related by translation along the b axis, are further linked into chains via weak intermolecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.

Comment
The title compound (I) was unexpectedly obtained during our study of the Schiff base bis-pyridine complex (Hou et al., 2007). In this paper, we report its crystal structure.
In (I) (Fig.1), the dihedral angles between benzene ring and two pyridine rings are 81.34 (11) ° and 54.32 (11) °, respectively. In the crystal structure, the intramolecular O—H···N and intermolecule N—H···N hydrogen bonds (Table 1) are observed.
Experimental
The title compound and its single crystals suitable for the X-ray diffraction were prepared by slow evaporation of the ethanol solution which contains o-phenylenediamine, 4-acetylpyridine and a small amount of acetic acid at room temperatue.
Refinement
All H atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.93 - 0.97 Å, N—H 0.86 Å, O—H 0.82 Å), and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with Uiso(H) = 1.2 or 1.5 Ueq of the parent atom.

Special details
| Experimental. (See detailed section in the paper) |
| Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
| Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |
