Bis(piperidin-1-yl)methanone

R. Betz, T. Gerber and H. Schalekamp

Abstract: The title compound, C₁₁H₂₀N₂O, is a urea derivative bearing two piperidine moieties in place of the amino groups. The molecule shows approximate non-crystallographic C₂ symmetry. The six-membered rings adopt ¹C₄ and ⁴C₁ conformations and their mean planes make a dihedral angle of 35.87 (5)°. In the crystal, intermolecular C-HO contacts connect the molecules into infinite strands along the a axis.
