title: 5,5'-Bis[(2,2,2-trifluoro-eth-oxy)meth-yl]-2,2'-bipyridine.
abstract: The complete molecule of the title compound, C(16)H(14)F(6)N(2)O(2), is generated by crystallographic inversion symmetry, which results in two short intramolecular C-H⋯N hydrogen-bond contacts per molecule. In the crystal, aromatic π-π stacking [centroid-centroid distance = 3.457 (2) Å] and weak C-H⋯π inter-actions occur. A short H⋯H [2.32 (3) Å] contact is present.
