Methyl 2-{6-[(1-methoxy-1-oxopropan-2-yl)aminocarbonyl]pyridine-2-carboxamido}propanoate

Abstract

In the title compound, C15H19N3O6, the amide planes are inclined at dihedral angles of 0.8 (6) and 12.1 (3)° with respect to the central pyridine ring. The mean planes of the corresponding methyl acetate groups form dihedral angles of 41.76 (13) and 86.48 (15)°, respectively with the mean plane of pyridine ring. A pair of weak intramolecular N—H...N hydrogen bonds generate an S(5)S(5) ring motif in the molecule. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H...O hydrogen bonds into [001] chains. The chains are cross-linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds into layers lying parallel to bc plane. The crystal packing also features a C—H...π interaction.
