Abstract: The title compound, C₁₄H₁₇NO₂, crystallizes with four independent molecules (A, B, C and D) in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal structure, molecules A and C are hydrogen bonded to their symmetry-related molecules to form parallel chains extending in the a direction. Molecules B and D are hydrogen bonded to one another and form alternating zigzag chains running in the c direction. These hydrogen-bonded chains are connected via intermolecular C-H and C-HO contacts. The four independent molecules are related by non-crystallographic pseudo-symmetry.
