2-(4-Bromo-phen-oxy)propanohydrazide

Abstract

The title compound, C9H11BrN2O2, is an important inter-mediate for the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds such as azoles, 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4- oxadiazo-les and 5-substituted 2-mercapto-1,3,4-oxadiazo-les. The bromo-phen-oxy group subtends a dihedral angle of 82.81 (7)° with the plane passing through the propanohydrazide moiety. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter-molecular N - H⋯O hydrogen bonds that form columns extending along the b axis.
