Crystal structure of 2-nitro-N-(5-nitro-1,3-thia­zol-2-yl)benzamide

In the title compound, C₁₀H₆N₄O₅S, the mean plane of the non-H atoms of the central amide fragment C—N—C(=O)—C [r.m.s. deviation = 0.0294 Å] forms dihedral angles of 12.48 (7) and 46.66 (9)° with the planes of the thia­zole and benzene rings, respectively. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by N—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [001]. In addition, weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds link these chains, forming a two-dimensional network, containing R⁴₄(28) ring motifs parallel to (100).
