(2RS)-3-Hydr-oxy-2-methyl-2-(2-pyrid-yl)imidazolidine-4-one.

The title structure, C(9)H(11)N(3)O(2), is a racemate. The chiral centre is situated at the N-C-N C atom of the imidazolidine ring. The inter-planar angle between the mean planes of the pyridine and imidazolidine rings is 89.41 (5)°. The methyl group is in a trans position with respect to the pyridine N atom. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are arranged in zigzag layers parallel to the b axis. The mol-ecules within the layers are inter-connected by strong O-H⋯N and weak N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds; the former take place between OH groups and amine N atoms and the latter between the amine N atom and the carbonyl O atom. In addition, C-H⋯O inter-actions are also present.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
