Abstract: The title compound, C₁₃H₁₁NO₆, a modified aspirin, was characterized by ¹H NMR, solid-state IR and X-ray crystallographic techniques. The X-ray structure determination reveals that the twist of the acetyl group with respect to the phenyl ring is 12° less than that in aspirin. Also, the carboxyl plane is twisted out of the plane of the phenyl ring, probably due to the succinimide substitution. The crystal structure is stabilized by C-HO and - interactions.
