title: 2,7-Bis-(trichloro-meth-yl)-1,8-naphthyridine.
abstract: The complete mol-ecule of the title compound, C(10)H(4)Cl(6)N(2), is generated by crystallographic twofold symmetry, with two C atoms lying on the rotation axis; the 1,8-naphthyridine ring is almost planar with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0002 Å. In the crystal structure, the mol-ecules are stacked in an anti-parallel manner along [001]. Short Cl⋯Cl [3.3502 (4)] and Cl⋯N [3.2004 (11)-3.2220 (10) Å] contacts are observed in the crystal structure.
