In the title compound, C18H19BrN2O4, the chromene unit is not quite planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.199 Å), with the methyl C atoms lying 0.027 (4) and 1.929 (4) Å from the mean plane of the chromene unit. The six-membered carbocyclic ring of the chromene moiety adopts an envelope conformation, with the dimethyl-substituted C atom as the flap. The methylamine and nitro groups are slightly twisted from the chromene moiety, with C—N—C—O and O—N—C—C torsion angles of 2.7 (4) and −0.4 (4)°, respectively. The dihedral angle between the mean plane of the chromene unit and the benzene ring is 85.61 (13)°. An intramolecular N—HO hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring motif, which stabilizes the molecular conformation. In the crystal, molecules are linked via N—HO hydrogen bonds, forming hexagonal rings lying parallel to the ab plane. A region of disordered electron density, most probably disordered ethanol solvent molecules, occupying voids of ca 432 Å3 for an electron count of 158, was treated using the SQUEEZE routine in PLATON [Spek (2009). Acta Cryst. D65, 148–155]. Their formula mass and unit-cell characteristics were not taken into account during refinement.

In the title compound, C19H22N2O4, the six-membered cyclohexenone ring of the chromene unit adopts an envelope conformation, with the dimethyl-substituted C atom as the flap, while the pyran ring has a boat conformation. These two mean planes are inclined to one another by 6.65 (13)°·The benzene ring is normal to the 4H-chromene moiety mean plane, making a dihedral angle of 89.18 (5)°. The methylamine and nitro groups are slightly twisted from the chromene moiety mean plane, with torsion angles C—N—C—O = 1.70 (18) and O—N—C—C = 0.15 (18)°. The molecular structure is characterized by an intramolecular N—HO hydrogen bond, which generates an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are linked via pairs of weak C—HO hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers. These dimers are connected by further C—HO hydrogen bonds, forming sheets lying parallel to (10-1).
