The title compound, C11H11N3O3, contains two planar fragments, viz. the imidazole and phenyl rings. These rings are significantly twisted with respect one to another, with a dihedral angle of 63.99 (8)°. The nitro group is almost coplanar with the imidazole plane, while the methoxy group is almost perpendicular to it [the C—C—O—C torsion angle is 65.1 (4)°]. In spite of this, there is a short C(methoxy)—H...O(nitro) contact that might be regarded as an intramolecular hydrogen bond. Weak intermolecular C—H...N(imidazole) and C—H...O(nitro) hydrogen bonds create quite a complicated network that consists of …

Infinite chains connected by N-H...N hydrogen bonding form the primary packing motif in two closely related 4-nitroimidazole derivatives, viz. 5-bromo-2-methyl-4-nitro-1H-imidazole, C4H4BrN3O2, (I), and 2-methyl-4-nitro-1H-imidazole-5-carbonitrile, C5H4N4O2, (II). These chains are almost identical, even though in (II) there are two symmetry-independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The differences appear in the interactions between the chains; in (I), there are strong C-Br...O halogen bonds, which connect the chains into a two-dimensional grid, while in (II), the cyano group does not participate in specific interactions and the chains are only loosely connected into a three-dimensional structure.
