P. Niedzialkowski, T. Ossowski and A. Sikorski

Abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, C16H12O5, is stabilized by C-H...O hydrogen bonds and C=O...[pi] interactions; [pi]-[pi] interactions are also present. With respective average deviations from planarity of 0.003 (2) and 0.002 (1) Å, the xanthone and ester fragments are oriented at an angle of 2.8 (2)° with respect to each other. The mean planes of the xanthone skeleton lie either parallel to each other or are inclined at an angle of 85.5 (2)° in the crystal structure.
