5-[(3,4-Dimethoxy-benzyl)-aminomethyl-ene]-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(15)H(17)NO(6), is approximately planar, with dihedral angles of 3.11?(4) and 2.12?(4)° between the connecting amino-methyl-ene unit and the planar part of the dioxane ring, and between the dimethoxy-benzyl ring and the amino-methyl-ene group, respectively. The dioxane ring exhibits a half-boat conformation, in which the C atom between the dioxane O atoms is 0.5471?(8)?Å out of the plane. The mol-ecule has an intra-molecular N-H?O hydrogen bond which may stabilize the planar conformation. In the crystal, weak inter-molecular C-H?O hydrogen-bonding contacts, result in the formation of sheets parallel to the ab plane.
