The title compound was derived from the photo-induced sequential reactions of 9,10-phenanthrenedione with bicyclopropylendiene. The compound was purified by flash
with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:10) as eluents. X-ray quality crystals of the title compound (m.p. 192–194 °C) were obtained from slow evaporation of an acetone and petroleum ether solution (1:10).All H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model with C—H = 0.93 or 0.97 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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. |

The title compound was firstly reported as a cyclopropyl ring-fused ten-membered bislactone whose preparation could be achieved through a concise photochemical method (Wu et al., 2012). In the title compound, Fig. 1, the benzene rings (C1–C6 and C7–C12) form a dihedral angle of 45.70 (4)°. Bond lengths (Allen et al., 1987) and angles are within normal ranges and are comparable to related structures (Fun, Quah, Wu & Zhang, 2012; Fun, Lim, Quah & Wu, 2012; Fun, Quah & Wu, 2012). In the crystal (Fig. 2), molecules are linked via intermolecular C3—H3A···O3, C4—H4A···O3 and C10—H10A···O1 interactions (Table 1) into a layer parallel to the (100) plane.
