title: 1,4-Bis(2,2':6',2''-terpyridin-4'-yl)benzene.
abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(36)H(24)N(6), comprises a whole mol-ecule. Supra-molecular inter-actions between neighbouring mol-ecules are essentially π-π stacking inter-actions with small inter-planar distances [3.5140 (15) and 3.6041 (15) Å]. The central phenyl-ene ring is tilted with respect to the two pyridine substituents, subtending angles of 36.17 (11) and 34.95 (11)°. Three of the peripheral pyridine substituents are almost coplanar with the central pyridines [dihedral angles = 5.10 (12)-8.21 (12)°], but one subtends an angle of 24.86 (12)°.
