3,3'-{1,1'-Methylenebis[naphthalene-2,1-diylbis(oxymethylene)]}dibenzonitrile

J. Xiao and H. Zhao

Abstract: The title compound, C₃₇H₂₆N₂O₂, was synthesized from 1,1'-methylenedinaphthalen-2-ol and 3-(bromomethyl)benzonitrile. The two naphthyl systems are almost perpendicular to each other [dihedral angle 83.3 (9)°] and the two cyanobenzyloxy rings approximately parallel to each other [dihedral angle 15.5 (2)°].
