    Abstract

    The title mol-ecule, C4H10N2O, is planar and its alkyl chain displays an all-trans configuration, which is typical for n-alkyl-urea structures. Pairs of mol-ecules are hydrogen bonded across crystallographic inversion centres [N⋯O = 2.962 (4) Å], with each O atom involved in two additional hydrogen bonds, linking adjacent urea molecules into chains along c [N⋯O = 2.924 (3) and 3.042 (3) Å]. Each chain is propagated by a c-glide operation and planes containing adjacent urea molecules inter-cept at an angle of 50.14 (9)°. © International Union of Crystallography 2007.
