Abstract: The title compound, C 40 H 56 N 2 O 2 , was prepared via a Horner olefination reaction. Contrary to the previous structure, in which the complete molecule was generated by inversion symmetry and displayed unreasonable geometrical features [Zhang et al. (2005). Chin. J. Struct. Chem. 24 , 669–672], the molecule has C 1 symmetry and the dihedral angles between the central and peripheral aromatic rings are 39.29 (9) and 18.95 (9)°. A weak C—H...π interaction occurs in the extended structure.
