Abstract

In the title compound, C21H19NO6, the isoindole ring system is essentially planar [maximum deviation = 0.019 (2) Å for the N atom] and is oriented at a dihedral angle of 51.3 (1)° with respect to the benzene ring. The two methoxy groups are almost coplanar with the attached benzene ring [C—O—C—C = 3.7 (4) and 4.3 (4)°]. The molecular conformation is stabilized by an intramolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, which generates an S(9) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are linked through bifurcated C—H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds having R 1 2(5) ring motifs, forming chains along the b-axis direction. The crystal packing is further stabilzed by π–π interactions [centriod–centroid distance = 3.463 (1) Å].
