Kaempferia rotunda rhizomes were purchased from a market in Kempas, Johor. The rhizomes were dried and then grounded. The grounded rhizomes were extracted with n-hexane (4.5 L), ethyl acetate (4.5 L) and methanol (4.5 L) in a soxhlet extractor for 16 h. The extracts were concentrated to give a dark brown semi-solid from the n-hexane extract (2.32 g), a dark brown oil from the ethyl acetate extract (6.80 g) and a dark brown viscous liquid from the methanol extract (15.27 g). The n-hexane extract was purified by column chromatography (93.0 g, column size: 4.5 × 45.0 cm) with n-hexane:ether (99:1, 98:2 and 97:3) as eluents to give 20 fractions. Fractions 13 (0.08 g) and 14 (0.02 g) were combined and recrystallized by from an n-hexane: ether mixture to afford the title compound (6.9 mg) as yellow crystals.
Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.95–0.98 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2–15U(C).
The hydroxy H-atom was located in a difference Fourier map, and was refined isotropically with the O–H distance restrained to 0.84±0.01 Å.
Kaempferia rotunda is one of the four Malaysian Kaempferia of the Zingiberaceae family; among the constitutents isolated is 1-(2-hydroxy-4,6-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-propen-1-one (Scheme I) (Sirat et al., 2001; Stevenson et al., 2007). The planar –CH═CHC(═O)– fragment (r.m.s. deviation 0.074 Å) connects the planar hydroxyldimethoxyphenyl (r.m.s. deviation 0.039 Å) and methoxylphenyl (r.m.s. deviation 0.021 Å) parts. The fragment is aligned at 13.7 (1) ° with the hydroxydimethoxyphenyl part and at 32.0 (1) ° with the methoxyphenyl part. The hydroxy group forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond to the carbonyl oxygen atom of the fragment (Fig. 1).
For the isolation of the compound from Kaempferia rotunda, see: Sirat et al. (2001); Stevenson et al. (2007).

Kaempferia rotunda is one of the four Malaysian Kaempferia of the Zingiberaceae family; among the constitutents isolated is 1-(2-hydroxy-4,6-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-propen-1-one (Scheme I) (Sirat et al., 2001; Stevenson et al., 2007). The planar –CH═CHC(═O)– fragment (r.m.s. deviation 0.074 Å) connects the planar hydroxyldimethoxyphenyl (r.m.s. deviation 0.039 Å) and methoxylphenyl (r.m.s. deviation 0.021 Å) parts. The fragment is aligned at 13.7 (1) ° with the hydroxydimethoxyphenyl part and at 32.0 (1) ° with the methoxyphenyl part. The hydroxy group forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond to the carbonyl oxygen atom of the fragment (Fig. 1).
