title: 6-(4-Nitro-benz-yloxy)quinoline.
abstract: In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(16)H(12)N(2)O(3), the nitrobenzene benzene ring forms a dihedral angle of 23.8 (8)° with the plane of the quinoline ring system. The crystal structure is stabilized by an aromatic π-π stacking inter-action between centrosymmetrically related benzene rings [centroid-centroid distance 3.663 (2) Å].
