(6-Uradinyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole-1-oxyl

Crystal analysis by A Chandrasekaran and D. Venkataraman for Paul R. Serwinski and Patrick Taylor

This molecule was synthesized first by Paul Serwinski and Patrick Taylor as an analogue of a molecule made by Burak Esat and by the Veciana group in Barcelona, Spain. This molecule is interesting for its planarity, by comparison to its connectivity analog made by Burak and by the
Veciana group.  It does NOT form chains, but instead forms hydrogen-bonded dimers.
