N-Benzyl-2-propynamide
Abstract
Pale-yellow crystals of the title compound, C10H9NO, have been obtained by the reaction of benzylamine and methyl propiolate. Weak intermolecular hydrogen bonding is observed between acetylenic H and carbonyl O atoms. The crystal packing is stabilized by these C—H...O and by N—H...O intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions.
