In the title binaphthyl compound, C34H24Cl2O2, the dihedral angle between the two naphthyl ring systems (r.m.s. deviations = 0.016 and 0.035 Å) is 76.33 (8)°. The chlorophenyl rings make dihedral angles of 58.15 (12) and 76.21 (13)° with the naphthyl ring to which they are linked. The dihedral angle between the planes of the two chlorophenyl rings is 27.66 (16)°. In the crystal, C—H...O hydrogen bonds link molecules into chains propagating along [1-10]. The chains are linked by C—H...π interactions, forming a three-dimensional framework.
