2-(3-Nitrophenoxy)quinoxaline

Abstract

In the title molecule, C14H9N3O3, the dihedral angle between the quinoxaline and benzene rings is 77.13 (9)°. The molecule is twisted about the ether–benzene O—C bond, with a C—O—C—C torsion angle of −102.8 (2)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming layers in the ab plane, with one nitro O atom accepting two such interactions. The layers stack along the c-axis direction via weak C—H...π interactions.
