Abstract:
The title compound, C(11)H(12)N(2)O(2), shows an S configuration, in which the pyrrolidinone ring is twisted with respect to the phenyl plane, making a dihedral angle of 70.73 (7)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, building up a layer parallel to (001).

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Amides and Nitriles
The IUPAC and common names of amides are derived from the parent carboxylic acid, by replacing the suffix “oic acid” and “ic acid,” respectively, with “amide.” In the following example, the IUPAC name ethanamide is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetamide, is obtained from acetic acid.

Adrenergic Agonists: Chemistry and Structure-Activity Relationship
Aromatic ring substitutions: Substituting the aromatic ring with –OH groups at positions 3 and 4 yields catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine), which have a high affinity for adrenoceptors. Hydrogen bonding between –OH groups and receptors enhances adrenergic activity.
