Ethyl 4-amino-5-cyano-2-methyl-6-(2-nitrophenoxy)nicotinate.

In the title compound, C16H14N4O5, the benzene ring of the nicotinate residue is inclined at an angle of 64.06 (10)° to the benzene ring of the nitrophenoxy group. The molecules are linked by two intermolecular C—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds into a complex three-dimensional framework structure. C—H...π interactions also contribute to the stability of the crystal packing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
