Abstract

The preparation and molecular and crystal structures of the title compound are reported. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group \(P\overline 1\) (No. 2) with unit cell dimensions of a = 7.2493(3) Å, b = 8.9287(4) Å, c = 10.6594(4) Å, α = 90.419(3)°, β = 91.287(3)°, γ = 103.153(3)°, V = 671.62(5) Å3, and Z = 2. The molecular structure of the title compound consists of three sections, the glycine chain and the two 2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl groups. Every molecule is linked with three adjacent molecules through three hydrogen-bonding patterns which are 8-membered or 20-membered rings. The chain of rings appears periodically, which makes the molecule form a layer structure in the crystal.
