1-[(Z)-2-Phenyl-hydrazin-1-yl-idene]-1-(piperidin-1-yl)propan-2-one
Abstract:
A Z configuration about the imine bond [1.3025 (18) Å] in the title compound, C(14)H(19)N(3)O, allows for the formation of an intra-moleclar N-H⋯N hydrogen bond between the hydrazone H and piperidine N atoms; the carbonyl group is disposed to lie over the piperidine residue, which is in a chair form. A twist between the terminal benzene ring and the hydrazine residue is seen [N-N-C-C torsion angle = 163.81 (12)°]. Helical supra-molecular chains along the c axis mediated by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are the most prominent feature of the crystal packing. The chains are connected into layers lying in the ac plane by weak C-H⋯π contacts involving two methyl-ene H atoms and an adjacent benzene ring.

Structure and Nomenclature of Alcohols and Phenols
Alcohols are one of the most important functional groups in organic chemistry. The name of alcohol comes from the hydrocarbon from which it is derived. Alcohols are organic molecules containing the functional hydroxyl or –OH group directly bonded to carbon. Phenols have an OH group directly attached to a benzene ring. While alcohols are colorless, phenol is a white crystalline compound with a characteristic "hospital smell" odor.
As with other organic compounds, alcohols and phenols...
