Dimethyl pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate

J.-Y. Huang and W. Xu

Abstract: The title molecule, C₉H₉NO₄, possesses crystallographically imposed twofold rotation symmetry. In the crystal structure, the molecules are stacked into ladders extended along the c axis, with a short intermolecular OC contact of 3.297 (2) Å. The crystal packing is stabilized by carbonyl dipolar interactions and van der Waals forces.
