Summary

Description

Ball-and-stick model of a 2-phenylpyridine molecule, 2-PhPy i.e. PhC5H4N or C11H9.

There is a low barrier to rotation about the C-C single bond in 2-phenylpyridine, so both planar and twisted conformations are observed. For example, the molecule is planar in the crystal structure determined by X-ray diffraction and reported in CSD entry HOJWIP but is calculated to be twisted by 22±1° in Chem. Phys. Lett. (2000) 321, 399-405 and J. Chem. Theory Comput. (2006) 2, 1530-1537.
