(E,E,E)-1,6-Bis(4-chloro-phen-yl)hexa-1,3,5-triene.

The title mol­ecule, C18H14Cl2, lies about an inversion centre. The hexa­triene chain is planar with a maximum deviation of 0.0001 (17) A. The torsion angle of the single bond between the chain and the benzene ring is −168.49 (17)°. In the crystal, the shortest inter­molecular distance between the Cl atoms is 4.0785 (11) A.
