Abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, C₂₆H₂₂N₄, the molecule is located on an inversion centre and shows an E configuration with respect to each C=N bond. The dihedral angle between the phenyl rings in the diphenylhydrazone group is 83.69 (11)°. These two rings make dihedral angles of 30.53 (15) and 84.53 (16)° with the central N-N=C-C=N-N dihydrazonoethane plane. Intermolecular C-H interactions are observed.
