[1-Phenyl-2-(4-pyridyl)ethylidene]hydrazine

S.-P. Tang

Abstract: The title compound, C₁₃H₁₃N₃, is non-planar, with the pyridine and phenyl rings inclined at an angle of 80.7 (3)°. The central ethylidenehydrazine atoms lie in a plane [mean deviation = 0.013 (1) Å], which forms dihedral angles of 88.5 (1) and 9.4 (1)° with the pyridine and phenyl rings, respectively. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked by intermolecular N-HN hydrogen bonds into infinite chains propagating along the b axis.
