1,2-Bis(4-meth­oxy­phen­oxy)ethane

The whole mol­ecule of the title compound, C₁₆H₁₈O₄, is generated by twofold rotational symmetry; the twofold axis bis­ects the central C—C bond. The O—C—C—O torsion angle about the central C—C bond is 69.45 (16)°. Symmetry-related benzene rings are inclined to one another by 64.91 (8)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are connected by C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.
