Abstract

7-Ethoxyl-4′-hydroxyisoflavone was prepared and its crystal structure was examined by X-ray diffraction. Crystallization of the title compound occurs in the monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c with a = 11.144(2) Å, b = 10.209(1) Å, c = 13.191(2) Å, β = 113.43(1) and Z = 4. The molecular structure of title compound consists of a benzopyranone moiety, a phenyl moiety, a hydroxyl and an ethoxyl group. The benzopyranone ring is not coplanar with the phenyl ring, the dihedral angle being 46.75. The ethoxyl group is nearly coplanar with its corresponding ring with the torsion angle 175.23(2). Three kinds of hydrogen bond and two kinds of aromatic stacking interaction link the title compounds into a three-dimensional networking structure.
