N-(2-Formamidoethyl)formamide

Abstract

The complete molecule of the title compound, C4H8N2O2, is generated by a crystallographic inversion center. The occurence of N—H...O hydrogen bonds results in the formation of a two-dimensional infinite network parallel to the (010) plane. In this plane, the hydrogen bonds define graph-set motif R44(22) in a centrosymmetric array by the association of four molecules.
