13c-(2-Chloroethoxy)-1,13c-dihydro-2,3-epoxydibenzo[a,kl]xanthan-1-one

Abstract

The title compound, C22H15ClO4, containing three chiral C atoms, is an intermediate in the design of chiral alcohols. In the crystal structure, a chain structure is generated through C—H...O contacts and an intramolecular C—H...O interaction also occurs. The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the naphthalene system is 16.5°.
