Popis: The strongly yellow-coloured compound 5-(5-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetra­hydro­furan-2-yl)-1-phenyl­pent-4-ene-1,3-dione, C16H14O3, has different substituents on each side of the dione group. The mol­ecule is essentially planar and the structure indicates a continuous conjugation from the furyl moiety to the carbonyl O atom in the enol group, as well as a strong conjugation within the enol group itself. The enol H atom is bonded to the O atom closest to the furyl group. Weak hydrogen bonds are indicated and comments about the colour of the compound are given.
