Abstract

There are two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(10)H(9)NO(3), in both of which, all non-H atoms except for the methyl C atom lie nearly in the same plane [maximum deviations = 0.094 (3) and 0.043 (2) Å]. In the crystal, each independent mol-ecules is linked by pairs of C-H⋯O inter-actions, generating inversion dimers with R(2) (2)(10) ring motifs.
