1-[2-(3-Meth­oxy­phen­yl)eth­yl]pyrroli­dine-2,5-dione

In the title compound, C₁₃H₁₅NO₃, the pyrrolidine ring makes a dihedral angle of 4.69 (9)° with the 3-meth­oxy-phenyl ring. In the crystal, hydrogen-bonded chains running along [101] are generated by connecting neighbouring mol­ecules via C—H...O hydrogen bonds. Parallel chains are linked by further C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional structure.
