title: Bis(2,2-dimethylaziridinyl)phosphinic amide.
abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C8H18N3OP, contains one bis(2,2-dimethylaziridinyl)phosphinic amide molecule. The crystal structure is characterized by hydrogen bonds from the amide-N atom, which involve both H atoms of the amino group, to the phosphinic-O atom in two different molecules, thus forming infinite double-stranded chains along the base vector [100], and by hydrophobic contacts between these chains.
