Di­methyl 2‐{[2‐(methoxy­carbonyl)‐1‐(methoxy­carbonyl­methyl)pyrrol‐4‐yl]­methyl­ene}propane­dioate

The title compound, C₁₅H₁₇NO₈, is a pyrrole–ethene derivative with potential biological activity. Although a large part of the mol­ecule is planar, there is no structural evidence for any conjugation push–pull effect across the ethyl­enic bond, which is usually observed for substituted ethyl­enes; π‐electron delocalization appears to be restricted to the 2‐(methoxy­carbonyl)­pyrrole moiety.
