In the title compound, C10H15NO5, the five-membered cyclopentane ring has an envelope conformation, with four atoms lying in a plane (mean deviation = 0.0213 Å), while the fifth atom deviates from this plane by 0.626 (2) Å. A three-dimensional structure is formed through N—HO and O—HO hydrogen bonds between the amide and carboxylic acid groups and both carboxylic acid and amide O-atom acceptors.
