S. Aramaki and J. Mizuguchi

Abstract: The title compound, C₃₆H₂₂N₄, has recently been found to exhibit an excellent field effect transistor characteristic. The molecule is not entirely flat in its crystal structure (i.e. not D_2h) but is slightly deformed, as characterized by crystallographic C_i symmetry. The molecules are stacked along the b axis in a herring-bone fashion.
