The mol-ecular structure of the title compound, C22H38Si2, features a trans arrangement of the cyclo-penta-dienyl rings to avoid steric strain [C-Si-Si-C torsion angle = -179.0 (5)°]. The Si-Si bond length is 2.3444 (4) Å. The most notable inter-molecular inter-actions in the mol-ecular packing are C-H⋯π contacts that lead to the formation of wave-like supra-molecular chains along the b axis. ...[more]
