Benzyl 5-carboxy-4-ethyl-3-methylpyrrole-2-carboxylate.
In the title compound, C(16)H(17)NO(4), the benzyloxycarbonyl group is anti to the pyrrolic N atom. The molecules are joined into head-to-head dimers by hydrogen bonds involving the carboxylic acid groups. There is orientational disorder of these groups over two positions with approximately equal occupancy. A weaker hydrogen bond between the pyrrolic N atom and the carbonyl O atom of the benzyloxycarbonyl group joins the dimers into chains running parallel to the [110] direction.
