Abstract:
In the the title compound, C(6)H(5)BrN(2)O, an intra-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bond generates an S(5) ring. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular bifurcated N-H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules, leading to sheets propagating in (100).

02:37Experimental Determination of Chemical Formula
The elemental makeup of a compound defines its chemical identity, and chemical formulas are the most concise way of representing this elemental makeup. When a compound’s formula is unknown, measuring the mass of its constituent elements is often the first step in determining the formula experimentally.
01:25Basicity of Heterocyclic Aromatic Amines
Heterocyclic amines, where the N atom is a part of an alicyclic system, are similar in basicity to alkylamines. Interestingly, the heterocyclic amine having a nitrogen atom as part of an aromatic ring has much less basicity than its corresponding alicyclic counterpart. For this reason, as presented in Figure 1, piperidine (pKb = 2.8) is significantly more basic than pyridine (pKb = 8.8).
