Popis: The title compound is C19H18O4·1/2 CH3OH, triclinic,P¯1,a=9.891(2),b=13.273(4),c=13.860(4) A,a=66.47(2),β=86.91(2), and γ=85.59(2)°. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by least-squares techniques to anR factor of 0.082 for 2282 observed reflections. The X-ray structure uniquely resolves the one remaining ambiguity, namely the assignment of the correct structure4. There are two crystallographically independent molecules (A and B) and one disordered methanol molecule. Both molecular skeletons show small distortions from planarity with inclinations of 1.7 and 4.0° between the outermost rings A/C in molecules A and B, respectively. Intramolecular hydrogen bonds of the form O(3A)-H⋯O(2A) and O(3B)-H⋯O(2B) are observed in molecules A and B, respectively. The molecules are linked by pairs of O(3A)-H⋯O(2B) and O(3B)-H⋯O(2A) hydrogen bonds. The dimerlike structures are stabilized by intermolecular C-H⋯O interactions and van der Waals forces.
