tert-Butyl imidazole-1-carboxylate

Abstract

In the title compound, C8H12N2O2, molecules are interconnected by weak C—H...O contacts with H...O distances of 2.30 Å, resulting in the formation of chains along [100]. According to graph-set analysis, the unitary descriptor of these chains is C(5). In addition, there are π–π stacking interactions between pyrazole rings (centroid distance = 3.878 Å and ring plane distance = 3.26 Å).
