Summary: | The title centrosymmetric molecule, C46H42Si2, is composed of a central benzene ring with buta-1,3-diynyl chains at positions 1 and 4. These chains are terminated by tert-butyldiphenylsilyl groups, hence the molecule is dumbbell in shape. The molecules are connected via C—H...π interactions in the structure, so forming an undulating two-dimensional network in the bc plane. There is also a weak π–π interaction involving centrosymmetrically related phenyl rings with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.8359 (11) Å. |
