The title compound, C28H20O4, was synthesized by a bimolecular Zn-HCl reduction in glacial acetic acid using the meth-oxy-substituted xanthone as a starting material. The crystal structure shows that the 2,2'-meth-oxy-bixanthenyl-idene unit is an E-type conformation anti-folded conformer. The mol-ecule lies on an inversion center. The meth-oxy group is almost coplanar with the attached benzene ring, with a C-O-C-C torsion angle of 179.38 (14)°. ...[more]
