Acta Crystallographica Section E: Structure Reports Online is the IUCr’s highly popular open-access structural journal. It provides a simple and easily accessible publication mechanism for the growing number of inorganic, metal-organic and organic crystal structure determinations. The electronic submission, validation, refereeing and publication facilities of the journal ensure very rapid and high-quality publication, whilst key indicators and validation reports provide measures of structural reliability. In 2007, the journal published over 5000 structures. The average publication time is less than one month.

In the title compound, C14H11NO2, the benzene rings are inclined to each other with a dihedral angle between their mean planes of 8.42 (6) . The nitro group is almost coplanar with the attached benzene ring but is rotated about the C—N bond by 5.84 (12) . This redetermination results in a crystal structure with significantly higher precision than the original determination [Hertel & Romer (1931). Z. Kristallogr. 76, 467–469], and the intermolecular interactions have been established. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked by C—H O hydrogen bonds to generate C(5), C(13) and edgefused R33(28) rings.
