Abstract: The title compound, N,N'-bis[4-(phenylamino)phenyl]-1,4-phenylenediamine, C₆H₅(NHC₆H₄)₃NHC₆H₅ or C₃₀H₂₆N₄, has been obtained as large single crystals through sublimation under a static secondary vacuum, allowing for its structure determination. As in the phenyl-end-capped dimer, the (CNC) inter-ring links lie within a plane. The molecules have crystallographic twofold rotation symmetry, two half molecules making up the asymmetric unit.
