Abstract: The title compound, C14H12N2O2, is non-planar. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 32.1 (2)° and the nitro group is at an angle of 13.2 (2)° with respect to its attached benzene ring. In the crystal structure, the molecules are stacked through [pi]-[pi] interactions. The stacks are arranged through [pi]-[pi] and C-H...[pi] interactions, forming chains along [001], which are further connected by C-H...O and C-H...N hydrogen bonds, forming networks along [100]. The networks are connected by C-H...O hydrogen bonds along [010].
