title: 2,2'-Bis(4-nitro-phen-oxy)-1,1'-binaphth-yl.
abstract: The title compound, C(32)H(20)N(2)O(6), was synthesized by the reaction of 1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diol and 4-nitro-phenol in the presence of K(2)CO(3). The two naphthalene systems make a dihedral angle of 73.70 (5)°. The crystal packing involves mol-ecules connected by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a chain along the c axis.
