1,3-Di­phenyl-1-o-tolyl-3,4-di­methyl­indan

The title compound, C₃₀H₂₈, was prepared by tris-(2,4-di­bromo­phenyl)­aminium hexa­chloro­antimonate-induced cyclo­dimerization of 1-o-tolyl-1-phenyl­ethyl­ene in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexa­fluoro­propan-2-ol. The X-ray analysis of the only product of the reaction confirms that it is the cis isomer.
