title: (E)-3-(Oxolan-2-yl-idene)-1-phenyl-pyrrolidine-2,5-dione.
abstract: In the title compound, C14H13NO3, the dihedral angles between the central pyrrolidine ring and the pendant tetra-hydro-furan and phenyl rings are 5.34 (18) and 58.99 (17)°, respectively. The tetra-hydro-furan ring is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.008 Å). In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O inter-actions, generating a three-dimensional network.
