The molecular structure of the title compound, N-benzyl-N-[(2,2-dimeth
yl-1, n-4-yl)(1-methylimidazol-2-yl)methyl]hydoxylamine, C17H23N3O3, d
etermined from X-ray data, confirms the structure previously assigned
on the basis of chemical evidence. One type of O-H...N hydrogen-bond i
nteraction and van der Waals forces stabilize the crystal structure.
