2-[3-(Naphthalen-2-yl)phenyl]naphthaleneCAS 103068–17–3.

Abstract

The title compound, C26H18, consists of a benzene ring with meta-substituted 2-naphthalene substituents, which are essentially planar [r.m.s. deviations = 0.022 (1) and 0.003 (1) Å]. The conformation is syn, with equivalent torsion angles about the benzene–naphthalene bonds of −36.04 (13) and +34.14 (13)°. The molecule has quasi-Cs molecular symmetry.
