In the title co-crystal, C20H14N2O4·C2H4O2, the expected proton transfer from acetic acid to amine has not occurred. In the crystal, the chromene mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O and N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds to generate [100] columns. The acetic acid mol-ecules form inversion dimers linked by pairwise O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and occupy voids between the columns.
Keywords: acetic acid dimer; carbonitrile; chromene; co-crystal; crystal structure.
