Description
Summary:The title molecule, C25H21N, situated on the crystallographic twofold axis has a symmetry point group 2. The interplanar angles between the central pyridyl ring and the phenyl and the methylphenyl rings are 32.8 (2) and 23.7 (2)°, respectively. In the crystal packing, the central pyridyl rings of adjacent molecules are involved in π–π interactions, forming one-dimensional arrays along the c axis with centroid–centroid distances of 3.714 (1) Å.
