C. R. Sparrow, F. R. Fronczek and S. F. Watkins

Abstract: The title compound, C₂₄H₂₆O₂Si₂, has C₂ crystallographic symmetry. The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 84.5 (2)°. The acetylene group is slightly non-linear, with angles at the acetylene C atoms of 175.7 (2) and 177.0 (2)°. In the crystal structure, only van de Waals interactions occur.
