Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 3-eth-oxy-1-ethyl-6-nitro-quinoxalin-2(1H)-one.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C12H13N3O4, consists of two mol-ecules differing to a small degree in their conformations. In the crystal, layers of mol-ecules are connected by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and slipped π-stacking inter-actions. These layers lie parallel to (10) and are stacked along the normal to that plane. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing arise from H⋯H (43.5%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (30.8%) contacts. The density functional theory (DFT) optimized structure of the title compound at the B3LYP/ 6-311 G(d,p) level agrees well with the experimentally determined mol-ecular structure in the solid state.
