Abstract: The title molecule, C₂₀H₂₀O₄, lies on an inversion center. The central alkene moiety is not coplanar with the remainder of the molecule, forming a dihedral angle of 61.61  (12)° with the O-CH₂-CH₂-C plane and a dihedral angle of 58.70  (11)° with the phenyl plane. The central C=C length is 1.326  (2)  Å.
