Abstract
C20H24O2 (M r =296.4) crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space groupC2/c witha=24.154(4),b=8.001(2),c=12.751(3) Å;β=136.8(1)°;V=1686.9 Å3,Z=4,D c =1.17 g cm−3,μ(Cu-χα)=5.4 cm−1,λ=1.5418 Å,F(000)=640. The molecule in the solid state adopts a centrosymmetric geometry with the molecular center of symmetry coincident with a crystallographic center of symmetry. This fact forces the molecule to themeso conformation.
