In the title compound, C10H6F2N4, the Car-N bonds are slightly shortened with respect to a standard aniline C-N bond [1.3580 (16) and 1.3618 (16) versus 1.39 Å], thus indicating some π-π conjgation with the electron-acceptor CN groups. The mol-ecule, except for two C atom of the ethyl-ene bridge, is nearly planar, the largest deviation of the other non-H atoms from the mean plane being 0.309 (2...
