1,4-Di­bromo-2,5-di-p-toluoyl­benzene

In the title compound, C₂₂H₁₆Br₂O₂, which has approximate non-crystallographic inversion symmetry, the dihedral angles between the central ring and the pendant rings are 89.1 (4) and 82.4 (3)°; the dihedral angle between the pendant rings is 12.1 (4)°. In the crystal, the packing is influenced by van der Waals forces and no aromatic π–π stacking is observed.
