Comment top

As part of our ongoing synthetic and structural studies of bis-lactones containing a biaryl motif (Wu et al., 2012; Fun et al. 2012), we now report the structure of the title compound, (I).

In the title compound, Fig. 1, the terminal benzene ring (C17-C22) inclines at dihedral angles of 36.73 (9) and 69.37 (9)° with the other two benzene rings (C1-C6 and C7-C12), respectively. The two benzene rings form a dihedral angle of 55.99 (8)°.

Experimental top

The title compound was the major diastereoisomer of the photoreaction products of 9,10-phenanthrenedione with styrene via a photocycloaddition-photooxidation sequence. The compound was purified by flash column chromatography with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:9) as eluents. Colourless plates of the title compound was obtained from slow evaporation of an acetone and petroleum ether solution (1:10).

Special details top

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.
