The title compound, C13H10N2O2 [also called 1-(pyridin-2-yl)-3-(pyridin-3-yl)propane-1,3-dione], features an almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0095 Å) central C3O2 core consolidated by an intra­molecular hy­droxy-O-H...O(carbon­yl) hydrogen bond. Twists are evident in the mol­ecule, as seen in the...
