Acetylhydroxamic acid

Abstract
There is one independent molecule in the asymmetric unit of the title compound (alternatively namedN-hydroxyacetamide), C2H5NO2. It crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric space groupP43. The structure is an anhydrous form of acetylhydroxamic acid with typical geometry that corresponds well with the hydrated structure described by Bracher & Small [Acta Cryst.(1970), B26, 1705–1709]. In the crystal, N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds connect the molecules into chains in thec-axis direction.
