title: (E)-2-[2-(Penta-fluoro-phen-yl)ethen-yl]-8-quinolyl acetate.
abstract: The title compound, C(19)H(10)F(5)NO(2), was synthesized by the 1:1 condensation of 2-methyl-8-hydroxy-quinaldine with penta-fluoro-benzaldehyde. It crystallizes with two almost identical mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The penta-fluoro-benzene ring is essentially coplanar with the quinoline ring, forming dihedral angles of 2.49 (17) and 8.72 (16)° in the two mol-ecules.
