Abstract
The title mol-ecule, C9H10N2, exhibits whole-mol-ecule disorder in a 0.849 (4)/0.151 (4) ratio. The bicyclic portion is planar. In the crystal, a layer structure parallel to the ac plane is generated by N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds and C-H⋯π(ring) inter-actions. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H, C⋯H/H⋯C and N⋯H/H⋯N inter-actions.
期刊介绍:
Acta Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications is the IUCr''s open-access structural communications journal. It provides a fast, simple and easily accessible publication mechanism for crystal structure determinations of inorganic, metal-organic and organic compounds. The electronic submission, validation, refereeing and publication facilities of the journal ensure rapid and high-quality publication of fully validated structures. The primary article category is Research Communications; these are peer-reviewed articles describing one or more structure determinations with appropriate discussion of the science.
