Abstract
The title compound, C15H17NO8, is a pyrrole-ethene derivative with potentia l biological activity. Although a large part of the molecule is planar, the re is no structural evidence for any conjugation push-pull effect across th e ethylenic bond, which is usually observed for substituted ethylenes; pi - electron delocalization appears to be restricted to the 2-(methoxycarbonyl) pyrrole moiety.
