Crystal stucture of methyl 2-({[2-(meth-oxycarbonyl) phenyl]carbamoyl}amino)-benzoate

Abstract

In the title compound, C17H16N2O5, the dihedral angles between the central urea [N - C(=O) - N] fragment and its attached benzene rings are 20.20 (14) and 24.24 (13)°; the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 42.1 (1)°. The molecular conformation is consolidated by two intramolecular N - H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which both generate S(6) rings. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of C - H⋯O interactions generate R22(14) loops. The dimers are linked by further C - H⋯O interactions into (011) sheets.
