12-Bis{4-1-(anthracen-9-ylmeth­yl)-1H-123-triazol-4-ylphen­yl}-12-bis­45-bis­(methyl­sulfan­yl)-13-dithiol-2-yl­ideneethane

摘要

The title mol­ecule, C58H44N6S8, has point symmetry 2 (in the Schönfliess notation C 2). The related crystallographic twofold axis bis­ects the central ethane bond while it is parallel to the monoclinic unique axis of the unit cell. The dithiole=C—C=dithiole torsion angle is 103.7 (4)° and the triazole–anthracene moieties adopt a pincer-like conformation. The crystal structure features C—H⋯S and C—H⋯N contacts. The distance between the stacked anthracene fragments [centroid—centroid separations of 3.6871 (19) Å, off-set by 1.516 (3) Å and mean anthracene plane-plane separations of 3.361 (2) Å], which are parallel to (101) and (-101), indicates inter­molecular anthracene–anthracene π–π contacts. One of the terminal methyl­sulfanyl groups was modelled as being disordered with two refined orientations that converged to occupancies of 0.809 (5) and 0.191 (5).
