Abstract: The title compound [systematic name: 2-(1H-1,2,3-benzotriazol-1-ylmethyl)isoindole-1,3-dione], C₁₅H₁₀N₄O₂, was prepared by the reaction of 1H-benzotriazole and 2-bromomethylisoindole-1,3-dione. The benzotriazole and isoindole units are almost planar and make a dihedral angle of 70.2 (1)° (mean planes include C and N atoms). A weak C-HO intramolecular hydrogen bond involving a carbonyl O atom as acceptor stabilizes the observed molecular conformation.
