2-(4-Meth-oxy-1H-indol-3-yl)acetonitrile.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C(11)H(10)N(2)O, the cyanide group is twisted away from the indole-ring plane [C(cy)-C(me)-C(ar)-C(ar) = 70.7 (2)°; cy = cyanide, me = methyl-ene, ar = aromatic], whereas the meth-oxy C atom is almost coplanar with the ring system [displacement = 0.014 (5) Å]. In the crystal, N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into C(7) chains propagating in [100].
