<i>N</i>,<i>N</i>′-Dibutyloxamide

Abstract

N,N′-dibutyloxamide (1) was prepared by reacting diethyloxalate with n-butylamine in ethyl alcohol and characterized by microanalytical techniques, FT-IR, and NMR spectroscopy. Crystals suitable for single crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) were obtained from an acetonitrile solution of 1, and the structural characterization showed the presence of intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions.
