Abstract:
The molecules of the title compound, C11H14BrNO2, are assembled into a two-dimensional network by a combination of hydrogen bonds and stacking interactions. The phenyl rings are stacked along the c direction by displaced pi-pi interactions, forming a lipophilic layer. The aliphatic amide residues are interconnected along [100] by O-H...O, N-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds, forming hydrophilic layers.
