The title molecule, C 10H 16N20 (I), has approximate mirror
symmetry with the main chain fully extended. The
main torsion angles defining the molecular conformation
are O--Cw3--Cw3--Cw 58.9 (4) and -60.5 (4) °.
The mean principal dimensions include N~Csp 1.13 (1),
Csp--Cw3 1.46 (1) and Csp3--O 1.410 (6) A. The two nitrile
groups are oriented cis to one another [N=Csp...
Csp:--N 4.4o(5) °] and the intramolecular N.-.N separation
is 4.70 (1) A.
