Abstract

We have encountered two polymorphs of the title compound, C <subscript>24</subscript> H <subscript>16</subscript> B <subscript>2</subscript> OS <subscript>2</subscript> , both of which display almost the same unit-cell parameters. Compound (I) crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric space group P 2 <subscript>1</subscript> with four mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. These mol-ecules are related by pseudosymmetry. As a result, the space group looks like P 2 <subscript>1</subscript> / c , but the structure cannot be refined successfully in that space group. Compound (II) on the other hand crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group P 2 <subscript>1</subscript> / c with only two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The crystals studied for (I) and (II) were both non-merohedral twins.
