5,7-Bis(benzyloxy)-2-phenyl-4H-chromen-4-one

Abstract

In the title compound, C29H22O4, the chromene ring is almost planar with a small puckering [0.143 (2) Å]. The crystal structure is stabilized by C—H...O and C—H...π interactions. Edge-to-face (centroid–centroid distances of 3.894 and 3.673 Å) and face-to-face (centroid–centroid distance of 3.460 Å) π–π-ring electron interactions are also observed.
