Abstract
The synthesis and the crystal structure of 1H-imidazole-1-methanol, C4H6N2O, are described. This compound comprises an imidazole ring with a methanol group attached at the 1-position affording an imine nitrogen atom able to receive a hydrogen bond and an alcohol group able to donate to a hydrogen bond. This imidazole methanol crystallizes with monoclinic (P21/n) symmetry with three symmetry-unique molecules. These three molecules are connected via O—H⋯N hydrogen bonding in a head-to-tail configuration to form independent three-membered macrocycles.
期刊介绍：
Acta Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications is the IUCr''s open-access structural communications journal. It provides a fast, simple and easily accessible publication mechanism for crystal structure determinations of inorganic, metal-organic and organic compounds. The electronic submission, validation, refereeing and publication facilities of the journal ensure rapid and high-quality publication of fully validated structures. The primary article category is Research Communications; these are peer-reviewed articles describing one or more structure determinations with appropriate discussion of the science.
