Crystal structure of 2,5-bis(4-methylpyridin-2-yl)pyrazine chloroform disolvate

The heterocyclic molecule in the title solvate, C16H14N4·2CHCl3, possesses inversion symmetry, with the inversion centre situated at the centre of the pyrazine ring. The outer pyridine rings are inclined to the central pyrazine ring by 4.89 (9)°. The compound crystallized as a chloroform disolvate with the solvent molecules linked to the title molecule by C—H...N hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, molecules are further linked by π–π interactions involving the pyrazine and pyridine rings of neighbouring molecules [inter-centroid distance = 3.5629 (12) Å; symmetry code: x, y + 1, z + 1].
