(E)-1-(Pyridin-4-yl)propan-1-one oxime

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C8H10N2O, contains two crystallographically independent molecules of slightly different conformation, which are linked via an intermolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond. The dihedral angle between the pyridine ring and the oxime plane of molecule A [2.09 (19)°] is smaller than in molecule B [16.50 (18)°].
