Abstract
In the title compound, C15H12N2O3, pairs of molecules are linked into dimers by N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds, forming an R-2(2)(12) ring motif, with the dimers stacked along the a axis. These dimers are connected through pi-pi stacking interactions between the centroids of the benzene and furan rings of their 2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran ring systems. Furthermore, there exists a C-H center dot center dot center dot pi interaction that consolidates the crystal packing. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contacts are H center dot center dot center dot H (40.7%), O center dot center dot center dot H/H center dot center dot center dot O (24.7%), C center dot center dot center dot H/H center dot center dot center dot C (16.1%) and C center dot center dot center dot C (8.8%).
