Abstract
The structure of the title compound, C12H17GeNO4 or [Ge(CH3)3(C9H8NO4)], was determined as part of ongoing studies of the properties of esters substituted in the β position with group IV metal atoms. The conformation of the Ge-C-C-O moiety is gauche, the CH2-O distance is 1.463 (3) Å, the average Ge-Me distance is 1.944 (3) Å and the Ge-CH2 distance is 1.966 (3) Å.
