title: 1-(4-Meth-oxy-phen-yl)pyrrolidine-2,5-dione.
abstract: In the title compound, C11H11NO3, the di-hydro-furan-2,5-dione ring has a shallow envelope conformation, with one of the methyl-ene C atoms displaced by 0.216 (1) Å from the other atoms. These near-planar atoms subtend a dihedral angle of 55.88 (8)° with the benzene ring. In the crystal, C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into [010] chains.
