Abstract: The title compound, C₈H₁₂N₂O₂, belongs to the class of 5-substituted 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-2-ones, which exhibit a wide spectrum of biological activities. The conformation of the tetrahydropyrimidine ring is that of a distorted boat. In the crystal structure, N-HO hydrogen bonds form molecular dimers and also link these dimers into chains along the c axis of the unit cell.
