Abstract: In the title compound, C₈H₁₂N₂O, the piperidine ring exhibits a chair conformation and its least-squares plane (all atoms) makes a dihedral angle of 32.88 (12)° with the propanenitrile unit (r.m.s. deviation = 0.001 Å). In the crystal, molecules are linked by C-HO hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [001].
