2-(2-Methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-1,1-diphenylethanol

Abstract

The molecules of the title compound, C18H20O3, display an intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bond between the hydroxy donor and a ketal O-atom acceptor. In the crystal, intermolecular C—H...π interactions connect adjacent molecules into chains parallel to the b axis.
