In the title molecule, C24H22O8, the mean planes of the two coumarin units are inclined to each other at a dihedral angle of 79.93 (3)°. The attached methoxy groups form torsion angles of 7.65 (19) and 78.36 (14)° with respect to one coumarin unit, and angles of 9.01 (16) and 99.08 (11)° with respect to the other coumarin unit. In the crystal structure, weak intermolecular C-H
O hydrogen bonds connect pairs of molecules to form dimers, generating R22(16) and R22(18) rings; the dimers are linked by further weak intermolecular C-H
O hydrogen bonds, forming extended chains. Additional stabilization is provided by weak C-H
interactions.
A mixture of 7,8-dimethoxy-4-methyl coumarin (2.20 g, 10 mmol) and manganese(III) acetate (0.774 g, 1 mmol) was stirred at room temperature, then 70% perchloric acid (0.8 g, 6 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was heated under reflux at 114°C with stirring in the atmosphere of nitrogen for 3 h. The reaction mixture was cooled and diluted with 50 ml of benzene. The benzene solution was washed with water and aq. NaHCO3, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and left to evaporate. The residue showed two major compounds which were separated by column chromatography followed by preparative thin layer chromatography (Benzene: EtOAc, 9:1) into the title compound (I) (260 mg, 12%).
H atoms were positioned geometrically [C–H = 0.93–0.96 Å] and refined using a riding model with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) and 1.5Ueq(methyl C). A rotating–group model was used for the methyl groups.

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cyrosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K. |
Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Coumarins are a large group of naturally occurring oxygen heterocycles representing 2H-1-benzopyran-2-one derivatives. Many natural coumarins are reputed for their wide range of biological activites such as antibacterial (El-Agrody et al., 2001; Pratibha et al., 1999), antifungal (Shaker, 1996; El-Farargy, 1991), antioxidant (Yang et al., 2005), analgesic (Ghate et al., 2005), anti-inflammatory (Emmanuel-Giota et al., 2001) and antitumor (Nofal et al., 2000). Bi and tri-coumarins are a comparatively new group of compounds which are widespread in nature and their biological properties are also well known (Laakso et al., 1994). One of the characteristic pharmacological properties of coumarin derivatives is anticoagulant action (Kennedy et al., 1997). A large number of natural and semisynthetic coumarin and bicoumarin derivatives have been reported to demonstrate chemopreventive (Carlton et al., 1996) and anti-HIV (Zhou et al., 2000) activities. Keeping in view of these biological importance of coumarins and their dimers, we have synthesized the title compound (I) and report herein its crystal structure.
The molecular structure of the title compound is shown in Fig .1. In crystal structure of (I) molecules are linked by weak intermolecular C-H···O hydrogen bonds to form R22(16) and R22(18) rings (Bernstein et al., (1995). The two coumarin units are essentially planar with the maximum deviation from planarity of 0.0665 (11)Å for atom C9 in the ring (O3/C1–C9) and 0.0419 (12)Å for atom C16 in the ring (O7/C10–C18). The two coumarin units forming a dihedral angle of 79.93 (3)° (O3/C1–C9:O7/C10–C18), indicating that they are inclined to each other. Two of the methoxy units attached to the each coumarin units are twisted from the plane of coumarin unit as indicated by the torsion angles of C19–O1—C4–C5=-7.65 (19)°; C20–O2–C3–C2=78.36 (14)°; C22–O5–C12–C11=9.01 (16)° and C23–O6–C13–C14=99.08 (11)°, respectively. The bond lengths Allen et al. (1987) and bond angles are normal.
The crystal packing is illustrated in Fig. 2. In addition C—H···π interactions help stabilize the crystal structure.
