In the title compound, C9H13N3O4, an ester of the anti-infection drug secnidazole, the dihedral angle between the nitroimidazole mean plane (r.m.s. deviation = 0.028 Å) and the pendant acetate group is 43.17 (11)°. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of C—H⋯O interactions generate R
2
2(10) loops and further C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the dimers into [100] chains. Weak aromatic π–π stacking interactions with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.7623 (11) Å are also observed.
In the title compound, C15H15N3O6, the dihedral angle between the planes of the benzene and imidazole rings is 34.93 (10)°. An intramolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond is observed. In the crystal, O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the molecules into chains parallel to the c axis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
