Abstract

Triclinic, 1i, a= 11.209 (1), b= 10.196 (2), c=9.634 (2) Å, α = 82.76 (2), β = 109.43 (1), γ = 123.61 (1)°, Z=2; C_(20)H_(20)O_4, F. W. 324.38, D_m = 1.25, D_x = 1.249 g cm^(-3). The molecular structure is found to be based on a coumarin system fused at the 5,6 positions to an α-pyran ring. The structure was solved by Patterson methods; failure of direct phasing methods can be traced to an 'aberrant phase relationship' due to the hypersymmetry of the molecule, as discussed by Thiessen & Busing [Abs. Amer. Cryst. Assoc. (1973). Storrs, Connecticut, paper N-12, p. 183].
