Isopropyl 4-nitrobenzoate

Abstract

In the molecule of the title compound, C10H11NO4, the nitro group is approximately coplanar with the benzene ring [dihedral angle = 4.57 (10)°], while the carboxylate group is slightly twisted, making an angle of 12.16 (8)°. In the crystal, weak intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid distances = 3.670 (2) and 3.665 (2) Å] are observed.
