N,N′-Diphenylperylene-3,4:9,10-bis(dicarboximide)

Abstract

The title compound, C36H18N2O4, has one half-molecule in the asymmetric unit with the other half generated by a crystallographic inversion centre. The perylene-imide skeleton is entirely planar, but the terminal benzene rings are twisted in the same directions by 55.55 (8)°. The molecules are stacked along the b axis. © 2006 International Union of Crystallography All rights reserved.
