Abstract

The crystal structure of 2,5-lutidine (2,5-di­methyl­pyridine, C7H9N) has been determined at 150 (2) K following in situ crystal growth from the liquid. In space group P, the asymmetric unit contains two independent mol­ecules. Mol­ecules are linked via C—H⋯N interactions into polar chains aligned in a parallel manner to form polar sheets. Adjacent sheets are packed in an anti-parallel arrangement.
