title: Hexagonal packing of cis,cis-cyclohexane-1,3,5-tricarboxamide.
abstract: The title compound, C(9)H(15)N(3)O(3), which has crystallographically imposed threefold symmetry, crystallizes as a hexagonal columnar structure. The crystal structure is stabilized by a less common amide-amide synthon, where one amide group is hydrogen bonded to four others. The amide groups form cyclic amide-amide hexamers via N-H...O hydrogen bonds.
