Key indicators: single-crystal X-ray study; T = 100 K; mean (C-C) = 0.004 Å; disorder in main residue; R factor = 0.053; wR factor = 0.130; data-to-parameter ratio = 15.6.In the title compound, C 13 H 13 NO 4 , the asymmetric unit contains four independent molecules, each exhibiting an intramolecular N-HÁ Á ÁO hydrogen bond. The ethyl group in one of the four molecules is disordered, with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.295 (16)
