Crystal structure of 10a-hydroxy-9-(3-nitrophenyl)-3,6-diphenyl-3,4,5,6,7,8a,9,10a-octahydro-1H-xanthene-1,8(2H)-dione

Abstract

In the octahydroxanthenedione unit of the title compound, C31H27NO6, the central dihydropyran ring shows an envelope conformation, while the bilateral cyclohexene and cyclohexane rings adopt a half-boat conformation and a chair conformation, respectively. The nitrobenzene ring is twisted with respect to the two benzene rings, making dihedral angles of 63.1 (1) and 63.0 (1)°. In the crystal, O—H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into supramolecular chains propagating along the a-axis direction.
