Acetamidoxime.
The oxime of acetamide, viz. N-hydroxyethanimidamide, C(2)H(6)N(2)O, has a complex hydrogen-bonding arrangement in its crystal structure, featuring one strong O-H.N hydrogen bond together with weaker hydrogen bonding involving the amide groups. Conjugation effects lead to atypical distances and angles.
