Molecules of the title compound, C
12H
22N
2O
2, are composed of an nitramine group substituted by two cyclohexane rings. The cyclohexane rings have chair conformations, with the exocyclic C—N bonds in axial orientations. In the crystal, C—H

O hydrogen bonds connect the molecules into
C(6) [-101] zigzag chains.

Special details top
Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes)
are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken
into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles
and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only
used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic)
treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes. |
