Crystal Structure of 3-(Piperidine-1-yl-methyl)-1,3-benzoxazol-2(3H)-one

Abstract

The title compound, C₁₃H₁₆N₂O₂, consists of a planar benzoxazolone ring system and a piperidine ring. Crystals of the title compound are twinned and the structure could be solved with satisfactory results. It crsytallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The unit-cell parameters at 293 K are a = 6.608(5), b = 9.092(5), c = 11.075(5)Å, α = 105.714(5)°, β = 98.929(5)°, γ = 106.017(5)°, V = 596.3(6)ų, D_x = 1.294 g/cm³, Z = 2. In the crystal structure, there are intermolecular C-H…O hydrogen contacts.
