Pirimicarb: 2-dimethylamino-5,6-dimethylpyrimidin-4-yl dimethylcarbamate

Abstract

In the title compound, C11H18N4O 2 (systematic name: 2-dimethylamino-5,6-dimethyl-pyrimidin-4-yl N,N-dimethyl-carb-amate), the pyrimidine ring and dimethylamino group are almost in the same plane, making a dihedral angle of 1.6 (1)°. The dihedral angle between the mean plane of the pyrimidine ring and that of the dimethylcarbamate group is 83.42 (5)°. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular C - H⋯O hydrogen bonds contribute to the stabilization of the packing.
