title: 2-{4-[(2,2-Dimethyl-4,6-dioxo-1,3-dioxan-5-yl-idene)methyl-amino]phen-yl}acetonitrile.
abstract: The title compound, C(15)H(14)N(2)O(4), is approximately planar, with a dihedral angle of 6.48 (4)° between the amino-methyl-ene unit and the planar five-atom part of the dioxane ring, and a dihedral angle of 2.40 (4)° between amino-methyl-ene unit and the phenyl-ene ring. The dioxane ring is envelope shaped, with the dimethyl-substituted C atom that represents the flap 0.535 (8) Å out of the plane. The mol-ecule has an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond.
