The title compound, ,5,8,8-tetrafluoro-6-methoxy-5,8-dihydroquinoline,
C10H7F4NO, has a planar 1,4-cyclohexadiene ring with a maximum deviat
ion of 0.019(3) Angstrom from planarity, The C(6)=C(7) double bond [1.
327(4) Angstrom] is shorter than the C(9)=C(10) double bond [1.382 (4)
Angstrom], the latter value being consistent with that normally found
in pyridine rings.
