4,4'-({[(Pyridine-2,6-di-yl)bis-(methyl-ene)]bis-(-oxy)}bis-(methyl-ene))dibenzo-nitrile.

ABSTRACT

The complete title molecule, C23H19N3O2, is generated by a twofold axis passing through the central ring. The two oxymethyl-benzo-nitrile arms are attached at the meta positions of the central pyridine ring. The dihedral angle between the pyridine ring and benzene ring of both arms is 84.55 (6)° while the benzene rings make a dihedral angle of 46.07 (7)°. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯π inter-actions link the molecules sheets parallel to the ac plane.
