Abstract: The title structure, C₂₂H₂₄N₂O₁₀, contains two independent centrosymmetric molecules. The only significant difference between the molecules is the dihedral angle between the unique carbonate group (-O-CO₂-) and the benzene ring, the values being 77.35 (8) and 66.42 (8)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak intermolecular C-HO hydrogen bonds.
