1-(2,3-Dimeth-oxy-benzyl-idene)-2-(2,4-dinitro-phen-yl)hydrazine.

In the title compound, C(15)H(14)N(4)O(6), the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 3.7 (4)°. The nitro groups make dihedral angles of 6.0 (4) and 5.2 (4)° with the parent ring and are oriented at 6.0 (6)° with respect to each other. The meth-oxy groups are inclined at 54.0 (2) and 2.5 (3)° with respect to the benzene ring to which they are attached. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by weak C-H⋯O inter-actions. The mol-ecular conformation is consolidated by an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond.
