title: Bis(1-methyl-1-phenyl-ethyl) peroxide.
abstract: In the crystal structure, the title compound (also called dicumyl peroxide), C(18)H(22)O(2), lies on a center of symmetry. The COOC plane including the di-oxy group makes a dihedral angle of 79.10 (5)° with the phenyl ring. An inter-molecular C-H⋯π inter-action is observed between the phenyl groups.
