Abstract:
The crystal structure of the title compound, C20H19F3N2O4,
contains one molecule in the asymmetric unit. The CF3 group is disordered.
Important features of the molecule are the two C=N bonds in a Z,Z
configuration, one in the -methoxyacrylester
system and the other in the oxymethyl side-chain between the two aromatic rings.
