Abstract

In the title compound, C 15H 18N 4O 4, the 1H-imidazole ring forms a dihedral angle of 67.12 (8)° with the benzene ring. An S(6) ring motif is formed via an intramolecular N- H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the crystal, neighbouring molecules are linked by a pair of intermolecular N- H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming an inversion dimer. The dimers are further linked by a pair of C- H⋯O hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of chain along [021]. A C- H⋯π interaction involving the centroid of the benzene ring is also observed between the chains.
