The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C8H10N6O2, contains one-half molecule, which is completed by a crystallographic center of symmetry. The piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation. In the crystal, weak C—HO interactions link the molecules into layers parallel to the bc plane. The crystal packing also exhibits short NN contacts of 3.0467 (16) Å between the terminal diazo N atoms from neighbouring molecules.
