Abstract
An X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of O-methyl carbamate crystals (I) has been carried out at 295 K: space group P \(\bar 1\); a=5.144(1), b=5.530(1), c=7.344(2) Å, α=105.79(2), β=103.33(3), γ=100.30(3)°, Z=2; 947 unique reflections collected, R=0.082. In contrast to the initial investigation of these crystals at 123 K, this study established that at 295 K the Me hydrogen atoms of molecule I are disordered over two orientations with occupancies 0.60(5) and 0.40(5).
