tert-Butyl N-((1S)-2-hy­droxy-1-{N′-[(1E)-4-meth­oxy­benzyl­idene]hydrazinecarbon­yl}eth­yl)carbamate

The mol­ecule of the title compound, C(16)H(23)N(3)O(5), is twisted about the chiral C atom, the dihedral angle formed between the amide residues being 79.6 (3)°. The conformation about the imine bond [1.278 (5) Å] is E. In the crystal, O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonding between the hy­droxy, amine and carbonyl groups leads to the formation of supra­molecular layers, which stack along the c-axis direction.
