Both substituents lie to the same side of the beta-lactam core. In the crystal, N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into C(4) chains propagating in [010]. The chains are cross-linked by C-H center dot center dot center dot O and weak C-H center dot center dot center dot pi interactions, generating a three-dimensional network. The solvent molecules were found to be highly disordered and their contribution to the scattering was removed with the SQUEEZE procedure in PLATON [Spek (2009). Acta Cryst. D65, 148-155], which indicated a solvent cavity of volume 318 angstrom(3) containing approximately 114 electrons. These solvent molecules are not considered in the given chemical formula and other crystal data.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCrystal StructureBeta-Lactam RingC(4) ChainHydrogen BondingN-Unsubstituted 2-AzetidinoneHydrogen BondsC-H Center Dot Center Dot Center Dot Pi InteractionsCrystal structure of 3-(4-chlorophenoxy)4-(2-nitrophenyl)azetidin-2-one with an unknown solvateCrystal structure of 3-(4-chlorophenoxy)4-(2-nitrophenyl)azetidin-2-one with an unknown solvateArticle71O8+WOS:0003699685000152-s2.0-849281290622570551410.1107/S2056989014025845Q3N/A
