title: 4,4'-(1,8-Naphthalene-1,8-di-yl)dibenzonitrile.
abstract: In the title mol-ecule, C(24)H(14)N(2), the exterior C-C-C angle of the naphthalene ring system involving the two phenyl-substituted C atoms is 126.06 (11)° and the dihedral angles between the mean plane of the naphthalene ring system and those of the benzene rings are 66.63 (5) and 67.89 (5)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into a ladders by four weak C-H⋯π inter-actions.
