The 1,3-diketone group of the title compound, C21H20O6, exists in a keto-enol form stabilized by a strong intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond. As a result, a planar (mean deviation = 0.0099 Å) six-membered hydrogen-bonded ring is formed. The C-O and C-C bond lengths suggest significant electron delocalization in the ring. The dihedral angle between the six-membered hydrogen-bonded ring and its adjacent benzene ring is 8.78 (5)° and that between the benzene rings is 19.70 (5)°. In the crystal, mo ...[more]
