N-(4-Meth-oxy-2-nitro-phen-yl)acetamide.

Abstract

In the title compound, C9H10N2O4, the three substituents vary in the degree of lack of planarity with the central phenyl ring. The meth-oxy group is nearest to being coplanar, with a C-C-O-C torsion angle of 6.1 (5)°. The nitro group is less coplanar, with a 12.8 (5)° twist about the C-N bond and the acetamido group is considerably less coplanar with the central ring, having a 25.4 (5)° twist about the C-N bond to the ring. The NH group forms an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond to a nitro-group O atom.
