title: N-(5-Bromo-pyridin-2-yl)acetamide.
abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(7)H(7)BrN(2)O, contains two mol-ecules, in one of which the methyl H atoms are disorderd over two orientations in a 0.57 (3):0.43 (3) ratio. The dihedral angles between the pyridine rings and the acetamide groups are 7.27 (11) and 8.46 (11)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds generating bifurcated R(2) (1)(5) ring motifs, which in turn lead to [110] chains.
