Abstract: The title compound, C₄₀H₃₂N₂, has crystallographic twofold rotation symmetry, with two C atoms lying on the axis. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings of the 4-phenyl-2,6-dimethylphenyl group is 35.74 (17)°. The acenaphthene ring makes an angle of 76.93 (11)° with the benzene ring bonded to the N atom and an angle of 41.53 (13)° with the other benzene ring.
