Crystal structure of methyl 1,3-benzoxazole-2-carboxyl-ate.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C₉H₇NO₃, crystallizes in the monoclinic (P2₁) space group. In the crystal, the almost planar mol-ecules display a flattened herringbone arrangement. Stacking mol-ecules are slipped in the lengthwise and widthwise directions and are linked by π-π inter-actions [d(Cg⋯Cg = 3.6640 (11) Å]. The structure is characterized by strong C-H⋯N and weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and further stabilized by C-O⋯π inter-actions.
