Crystal Structure of 2-Cyano-N-cyclohexylacetamide

摘要

The title compound, 2-cyano-N-cyclohexylacetamide, C₉H₁₄N₂O, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with the following unit-cell parameters: a = 12.057(2), b = 4.7671(8), c = 16.327(4)Å, β = 96.50(2)°, Z = 4. The crystal structure was elucidated by direct methods, and refined to a final R-value of 0.0765 for 1137 observed reflections. The cyclohexane ring adopts the chair conformation. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds of the type N-H…O and C-H…N have been observed.
