title: 2-Methyl-3-nitro-N-{(E)-[5-(4-nitro-phen-yl)furan-2-yl]methyl-idene}aniline.
abstract: In the title Schiff-base type compound, C(18)H(13)N(3)O(5), the central furan ring makes dihedral angles of 12.80 (7) and 51.43 (4)° with the terminal benzene rings. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 45.43 (3)°. In the crystal, C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into layers parallel to (010). In addition, there are π-π stacking inter-actions within the layer [centroid-centroid distance = 3.584 (1) Å] and between the layers [centroid-centroid distance 3.751 (1) Å].
