title: 2-[1-Chloro-3-(2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)propan-2-yloxycarbonyl]benzoic acid.
abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(15)H(14)ClN(3)O(6), contains two independent mol-ecules. The imidazole rings are oriented with respect to the benzene rings at dihedral angles of 19.66 (3) and 21.64 (3)°. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into infinite chains.
