2-(1-Adamantyl)-1-(3-aminophenyl)ethanol
Abstract
In the crystal structure of the title compound, C18H25NO, molecules are linked via O—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming chains parallel to the c axis. Additional weak N—H...O interactions stabilize the crystal packing. The adamantane cage consists of three fused cyclohexane rings in almost ideal chair conformations, with C—C—C angles in the range 107.9 (10)–111.3 (11)°.
