1-(3-Amino-1H-inden-2-yl)ethanone.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(11)H(11)NO, was synthesized by the reaction of 2-(bromo-meth-yl)benzonitrile and acetyl-acetone in the presence of KOH. In the crystal packing, mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into chains running parallel to the b axis. Centrosymmetrically-related chains inter-act further through weak C-H⋯π inter-actions.
