An X-ray structural investigation on bis(1,2-dimethyl-3-indolizinyl)methane (1) reveals that it occupies a two-bladed propeller conformation with an anti-relation between the central methylene protons and the four methyl groups.In the crystal, the molecule lacks a C2 axis and it is asymmetric rather than helical.Since the two indolizinyl rings carry no substituents which can conjugate with their ? systems the structural results supply, for the first time, accurate information about the geometry of the important heterocycle indolizine.
