Abstract:
In the title compound, C20H13N5O2, the two pyrazine rings are nearly coplanar with the central pyridine ring, forming dihedral angles of 2.21 (9) and 4.57 (9)°. In contrast, the strong steric hindrance caused by the ortho-carboxyl group on the phenyl ring makes this ring rotate out of the attached pyridine ring plane by 52.60 (9)°. The carboxyl group is twisted from the phenyl ring by 22.6 (1)°. In the crystal, aromatic π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid distances = 3.9186 (4) and 3.9794 (5) Å] occur between the anti-parallel mol-ecules, generating infinite chains along [100]. O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect the chains, leading to the formation of a two-dimensional supra-molecular network parallel to (010). Inter-molecular C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds are also observed.

For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
