Abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, C₃₁H₂₆N₄O₄, displays a trans conformation for the nitrophenyldiazenyl portion of the molecule. Packing diagrams indicate that weak C-HO hydrogen bonds, likely associated with a strong dipole moment present in the molecule, dictate the arrangement of molecules in the crystal structure.
