%X In the molecule of the title compound, C7H15N3O, the central C atom is surrounded in a nearly ideal trigonal¨Cplanar geometry by three N atoms. The C¡ªN bond lengths in the CN3 unit are 1.3353 (13), 1.3463 (12) and 1.3541 (13)  , indicating an intermediate character between a single and a double bond for each C¡ªN bond. The bonds between the N atoms and the terminal C-methyl groups all have values close to that of a typical single bond [1.4526 (13)¨C1.4614 (14)  ]. In the crystal, the guanidine molecules are connected by weak C¡ªH...O and C¡ªH...N hydrogen bonds, generating layers parallel to the ab plane.
