6-(4-Nitro­benz­yloxy)quinoline

In the mol­ecule of the title compound, C16H12N2O3, the nitrobenzene benzene ring forms a dihedral angle of 23.8 (8)° with the plane of the quinoline ring system. The crystal structure is stabilized by an aromatic π–π stacking inter­action between centrosymmetrically related benzene rings [centroid–centroid distance 3.663 (2) Å]
