title: 2,3-Bis(bromo-meth-yl)-1,4-diphenyl-benzene.
abstract: In the title compound, C(20)H(16)Br(2), the terminal phenyl groups are twisted away from the central ring by approximately 55 and -125° (average of four dihedral angles each), respectively. The crystal structure is stabilized by a combination of inter-molecular and intra-molecular inter-actions including inter-molecular π-π stacking inter-actions [C atoms of closest contact = 3.423 (5) Å].
