title: 4-[(1E,3E,5E)-6-(4-Pyrid-yl)hexa-1,3,5-trien-yl]pyridine.
abstract: The two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(16)H(14)N(2), are planar [dihedral angle between the terminal pyridine rings = 1.76 (2)°] and each display an all-trans configuration of C=C double bonds. One of the two mol-ecules lies about a center of inversion. The dihedral angle between the two pyridine rings in the mol-ecule lying on a general position is 1.65 (2)°.
