N-(2-Pyridylmeth-yl)phthalimide.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C(14)H(10)N(2)O(2), the phtalimide and 2-pyridylmethyl units are almost perpendicular, with an inter-planar angle of 85.74 (2)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by weak C-H⋯O inter-actions, forming chains running along the b axis. The packing is further stabilized by offset π-π inter-actions between adjacent pyridine rings, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.855 (2) Å.
