2-(4-Bromophenyl)acetohydrazide

Abstract

In the title compound, C8H9BrN2O, the 1-bromo-4-methyl­benzene group and the formic hydrazide moiety [r.m.s. deviations of 0.0129 and 0.0038 Å] are oriented at a dihedral angle of 80.66 (11)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked via strong N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of chains in the [010] direction. These chains are linked via weaker N—H⋯N and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, with R 2 2(7) and R 3 2(7) ring motifs, forming a two-dimensional network parallel to (001).
