Abstract

In the title compound, C24H26O4, (I), the central ring of the fused tricyclic ring system adopts a shallow boat conformation, while the two outer rings adopt envelope conformations. The molecules are linked into C(9) chains by a single C - H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bond. The significance of this study lies in its comparison of the conformation and supramolecular aggregation of (I) with those of related compounds in the published literature.
