Summary: | In the title compound, C12H12N2O4, the dihydropyrrole ring is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0049 Å) and is nearly coplanar with the adjacent C2O2 residue [dihedral angle = 4.56 (9)°], which links to the 4-nitrobenzene substituent [dihedral angle = 4.58 (8)°]. The molecule is concave, with the outer rings lying to the same side of the central C2O2 residue and being inclined to each other [dihedral angle = 8.30 (7)°]. In the crystal, supramolecular layers parallel to (10-5) are sustained by nitrobenzene-C—H...O(carbonyl) and pyrrole-C—H...O(nitro) interactions. The layers are connected into a three-dimensional architecture by π(pyrrole)–π(nitrobenzene) stacking [inter-centroid separation = 3.7414 (10) Å] and nitro-O...π(pyrrole) interactions.
