Abstract: The molecule of the title compound, C₁₂H₁₀N₂O₂, is nearly planar, with a dihedral angle of 3.7 (2)° between the planes of the benzene and pyridine rings. Molecules are linked by intermolecular O-HN and C-HO hydrogen bonds, as well as possible C-H interactions, forming a two-dimensional zigzag hydrogen-bonded network.
