ABSTRACT
The crystal structure of heterocyclic compound 5-methyl-5-phenyl hydantoin has been determined from X-ray single crystal structural characterization. This material crystallizes in the orthorhombic system and noncentrosymmetric space group P21 (N°4). The crystal packing is governed by N–H···O hydrogen bond-type intermolecular interactions, forming chains and edge-fused 12-membered rings with graph-set C(4) C(5) C22(8) R33(12) in a similar hydrogen-bonding pattern of another chiral 5,5′-substituted hydantoins.
