Abstract: The structure of the major product from the treatment of benzaldehyde with glycerol, derivatized as its crystalline 4-bromobenzoate, is shown to be the title compound, C₁₇H₁₅BrO₄, by a room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determination, providing a rare example of a structurally characterized 1,3-dioxane system.
