(1H-1,2,3-Benzotriazol-1-yl)methyl 2,2-dimethylpropanoate

Abstract

In the title compound, C12H15N3O2, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzene and triazole rings is 0.331 (53) °. The side chain of the pivalate unit forms a dihedral angle of 69.04 (12)° with the benzotriazole unit. The ester group and two methyl groups of the pivalate unit are disordered with an occupancy ratio of 0.731 (3):0.269 (3). In the crystal, weak π–π stacking interactions are observed between inversion-related benzene rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.9040 (1) Å].
