Decays of the type B → D(∗)D(∗) can be used to provide a measurement of the parameter sin2β of the Unitarity Triangle that is complementary to that derived from the mode B0 → J/ψK0 S . Here we report a measurement of the branching fraction and a study of the CP parity content for the decay B0 → D∗+D∗− with the BABAR detector. With data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.7 fb collected at the Υ (4S) resonance during 1999-2000, we determine the branching fraction to be B(B0 → D∗+D∗−) = (8.0 ± 1.6(stat) ± 1.2(syst)) × 10−4. The measured fraction of the component with odd CP parity is 0.22 ± 0.18(stat) ± 0.03(syst). Observation of a significant number of candidates in the decay modes B0 → D∗+D− and B+ → D∗+D∗0 is reported. All results presented in this note are preliminary.
