The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C14H12F8N2, contains one tetrafluoropyrrolidine system and one half-molecule of benzene; the latter, together with a second heterocyclic unit, are completed by symmetry, with a twofold crystallographic axis crossing through both the middle of the bond between the C atoms bearing the heterocyclic rings and the opposite C—C bonds of the whole benzene molecule. The pyrrolidine ring shows an envelope conformation with the apex at the N atom. The dihedral angle between the least-squares plane of this ring and the benzene ring is 36.9 (5)°. There are intramolecular C—H...N interactions generating S(6) ring motifs. In the crystal structure, the molecules are linked by C—H...F interactions, forming chains parallel to [010].
