Abstract: The title compound, C₁₇H₁₄O₄, shows satisfactory cytotoxic activity against Artemia salina. Two non-classical intermolecular C-HO hydrogen bonds [CO = 3.273 (2) and 3.302 (3) Å] join the molecules alternately head-to-head and tail-to-tail across crystallographic inversion centres, resulting in a linear chain along the [11] direction.
