title: (2E)-3-(3-Bromo-4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-1-(pyridin-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one.
abstract: The mean planes of the benzene and pyridine rings in the title compound, C(15)H(12)BrNO(2), are nearly coplanar, subtending an angle of 2.8 (8)°. The prop-2-en-1-one group is also in the plane of these rings with an N-C-C-O torsion angle of 179.6 (3)°. A weak C-H⋯Br inter-molecular inter-action contributes to the crystal packing, creating a chain-like structure along the a axis.
