Abstract: The title compound, CH₃N₅O₄, is almost planar, and the conformation is fixed by two intramolecular N-HO hydrogen bonds. Owing to the delocalization of [bold pi] -electron density over the whole molecule, there is through-conjugation, with the C-N, N-N and N-O bond lengths having values intermediate between those typical for the corresponding single and double bonds.

Formula: CH₃N₅O₄
