Crystal and molecular structure of NN-dimethylacetamidoxime
Abstract
The crystal and molecular structure of the title compound, has been determined by a Fourier transform method from 665 unique X-ray diffraction intensities measured on a diffractometer, and refined by a least-squares procedure to R 4·5%. Crystals are triclinic, space group P, with cell parameters: a= 6·069(5), b= 7·582(5), c= 7·364(5)Å, α= 84·97(5)°, β= 79·66(5)°, γ= 114·16(5)°, Z= 2. The molecules are associated in pairs through a hydrogen bond between the hydroxy-group of one molecule and the oxime nitrogen of a neighbouring species. The hydroxymoiety is syn(i.e. cis) to the methyl group.
