Powder X-ray investigation of 4,4′-diisocyano-3,3′-dimethylbiphenyl

The title compound, C16H12N2, was investigated in a powder diffraction study and its structure refined utilizing the Rietveld Method. The molecule has approximate C2 symmetry. The dihedral angle between the rings is 25.6 (7)°. The crystal packing is consolidated by weak C—H...C[tr...
