Abstract
A second polymorph of 4-aminobenzyl alcohol [orthorhombic, a = 8.95051(15), b = 5.8248(1), c = 12.1645(2) Å, space group Pna21] shows a “herringbone” structure with stacks of hydrogen-bonded molecules when viewed down the b-axis.Graphical A new polymorph of 4-aminobenzyl alcohol adopts a “herringbone” structure with stacks of hydrogen bonded molecules viewed down the b-axis.
Highlights
In connection with current studies on functionalised analogues of azophenine, we recently prepared 4-aminobenzyl alcohol 1

The combination of amino and hydroxyl groups with a benzene ring gives interesting opportunities for the formation of hydrogen-bonded networks and Journal of Chemical Crystallography (2020) 50:8–13 such features have already been noted for both the metaisomer 2 [2] and the ortho-isomer 3 [3]
