In the title molecule, C12H15NO5, the nitrophenoxy portion is approximately planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.034 Å) and makes an angle of 84.8 (1)° with respect to the –CH2–C(=O)–O–C fragment. In the crystal, π–π stacking is observed between nearly parallel benzene rings of adjacent molecules, the centroid–centroid distance being 3.6806 (10) Å. Weak intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonding is present in the crystal structure.
