The title compound, C30H18S3.CH2Cl2, has an almost eclipsed conformati
on with the aromatic rings showing normal van der Waals contacts. The
alkyne units in the bridges show some deviation from linearity as a re
sult. The crystal contains solvent dichloromethane which was partially
lost in data collection, resulting in a final effective occupancy of
0.55.
