The molecule of the title compound, C24H16Cl12N2O4, is generated by a crystallographic inversion centre at the midpoint of the central C-C bond. A kink in the molecule is defined by a torsion angle of -169.86 (15)degrees about this central bond of the alkyl bridge. The pyrrolidine ring is essentially planar [max. deviation = 0.014 (1) angstrom]. The cyclohexane ring has a boat conformation, while both cyclopentane rings adopt an envelope conformation. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked by intermolecular C-H center dot center dot center dot O, C-H center dot center dot center dot Cl and C-Cl center dot center dot center dot pi interactions, and short intermolecular Cl center dot center dot center dot O and Cl center dot center dot center dot Cl contacts, forming a three-dimensional network.
