Pyridine derivatives with different heterocyclic nucleus have shown potent pharmacological properties as a part from the previously marketed drugs. The title compound, ethyl 2-[5-nitro-2-oxopyridine-1(2H)-yl] acetate has been synthesized, characterized by NMR, mass spectroscopy and the molecular structure was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The crystal structure is stabilized by Csingle bondH···O inter and intramolecular hydrogen bond interactions apart from the cycle stacking and Nsingle bondO···π interactions. The structure exhibits R₂²(8) and R₂²(10) supramolecular architecture. Hirshfeld surface analysis revealed that the O…H (45.0%) interactions has the major contribution to the molecular surface. From the 3D molecular energy frameworks the lattice energy of the compound is found to be -266.2 kJ mol⁻¹. The electronic properties of the compound were quantified using quantum …
