title: Quinoline-2-carbonitrile.
abstract: In the title compound, C(10)H(6)N(2), the mol-ecule is almost planar, with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.014 Å. The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 1.28 (16)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are stacked along the a axis by way of weak aromatic π-π stacking inter-actions between the benzene and pyridine rings of adjacent mol-ecules [centroid-centroid separation = 3.7943 (19) Å].
