In the xanthene ring system of the title compound, C23H25BrO4, the 4H-pyran ring is almost planar [maximum deviation = 0.040 (3) Å] and the cyclohexene ring adopts a sofa conformation. The cyclohexene ring attached to the xanthene system is puckered [QT = 0.427 (3) Å, θ = 55.0 (4) ° and ϕ = 164.4 (6) °]. In the crystal, molecules are linked to each other by O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds.
