2,2,2-Tribromo-N-(3-methyl­phen­yl)acetamide

摘要

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C9H8Br3NO, contains two independent mol­ecules. The conformation of the N—H bond is anti to the 3-methyl substituent in the benzene ring in each mol­ecule. The structure shows both intra­molecular N—H⋯Br and inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonding, the latter leading to the formation of helical supra­molecular chains along the b axis.
