The title co-crystal, C(9)H(9)NO(2)·C(6)H(6)O(2), is composed of one 2,6-diacetyl-pyridine mol-ecule and one resorcinol mol-ecule as the asymmetric unit. In the 2,6-diacetyl-pyridine mol-ecule, the two carbonyl groups are anti-periplanar to the pyridine N atom. In the crystal, the 2,6-diacetyl-pyridine and resorcinol mol-ecules are connected by two O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming planar chains of alternating components running along [120].
