Description:
The complete molecule of the title compound, C14H8N2, is generated by a twofold rotation axis located at the midpoint of the biphenyl C—C bond. The dihedral angle between the symmetry-related phenyl rings is 46.16 (3)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by slipped parallel π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.9451 (7) Å, normal distance = 3.6293 (5) Å, slippage 1.547 Å], forming columns along the b-axis direction.
