In the title mol­ecule, C15H18N4O6, the fused 2,3-dihydro­furan ring has an envelope conformation and the spiro pyrimidine ring has a half-chair conformation. In the crystal, short inter­molecular O⋯C contacts of 2.835 (4) and 2.868 (4) Å between the carbonyl groups indicate the existence of electrostatic inter­actions, which link the mol­ecules into corrugated sheets parallel to the ab plane

Oxygen reduction at soft interfaces catalyzed by in situ-generated reduced graphene oxide
