Alcoholic KOH (0.6 g, 11 mmol) was added drop-wise to a well stirred hot solution of butanone (3.4 g, 0.06 mol) and benzil (2.1 g, 10 mmol) in EtOH (25 mL) and refluxed for 30 minutes. The resulting reaction mixture was cooled to 278 K in an ice bath and extracted with n-hexane (3 × 25 mL). The extract was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting solution was kept at room temperature for 48 h to afford colorless prisms.
All Friedel pairs were merged. Although H atoms were discernible in difference Fourier maps, they were positioned geometrically with (C-H = 0.93–0.97 and O-H = 0.82 Å) and refined as riding with Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), where x = 1.5 for methyl and hydroxy H-atoms and x = 1.2 for all other H atoms.
Steroids belong to a rich class of secondary metabolites with enormous biological applications, e.g. in the treatment of brain tumors (Yamada, 2002). They are effective against cancer (especially of breast, uterus and prostrate) and also in therapeutic treatment of AIDS symptoms (Berger et al., 1996). The title compound (I, Fig. 1) has been synthesized as a D-ring precursor for the steroidal nucleus. The presence of a chiral center and the two phenyl rings makes it a novel substrate to synthesize a variety of steroids with different substituents on the D-ring.
Related crystal structures of 4-hydroxy-3,4-diphenyl-2-cyclopenten-1-one, (II), (Katritzky et al., 1999) and ethyl 4-hydroxy-3,4-diphenyl-cyclo-2-penten-1-one-2-carboxylate, (III), (Sher et al., 2007) have been published. The title compound differs from (II) and (III) due to substitution at the five membered ring.
The asymmetric unit of title compound consist of two molecules which differ slightly from each other. The phenyl rings A (C1—C6) and B (C12—C17) are attached to the five-membered ring C (C7—C11) which is nearly planar with a r. m. s. deviation of 0.0505 Å from the least-squares plane. The values of the dihedral angles between A/B, A/C and B/C are 84.98 (11)°, 84.80 (12)° and 73.00 (12)°, respectively. The other molecule consists of phenyl rings D (C19—C24), E (C30—C35) and the five-membered ring F (C25—C29). Here the five membered ring deviates by 0.0491 Å from the least-squares plane. The dihedral angles between D/E, D/F and E/F are 86.74 (11)°, 81.20 (13)° and 71.36 (12)°, respectively.
The packing of the molecules is characterised by intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonding between the hydroxy donor groups and the C═O acceptor groups, leading to the formation of chains extending parallel to [100] (Table 1, Fig. 2). Weak C—H···π and intramolecular π···π interactions are also observed. The five-membered and phenyl rings attached to the hydroxy containing C-atom show π···π interactions with separation in the range 3.767 (3)-3.779 (3) Å, whereas the five membered and other phenyl ring show a separation in the range 4.069 (3)-4.080 (3) Å.

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles |
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. |

Steroids belong to a rich class of secondary metabolites with enormous biological applications, e.g. in the treatment of brain tumors (Yamada, 2002). They are effective against cancer (especially of breast, uterus and prostrate) and also in therapeutic treatment of AIDS symptoms (Berger et al., 1996). The title compound (I, Fig. 1) has been synthesized as a D-ring precursor for the steroidal nucleus. The presence of a chiral center and the two phenyl rings makes it a novel substrate to synthesize a variety of steroids with different substituents on the D-ring.
Related crystal structures of 4-hydroxy-3,4-diphenyl-2-cyclopenten-1-one, (II), (Katritzky et al., 1999) and ethyl 4-hydroxy-3,4-diphenyl-cyclo-2-penten-1-one-2-carboxylate, (III), (Sher et al., 2007) have been published. The title compound differs from (II) and (III) due to substitution at the five membered ring.
The asymmetric unit of title compound consist of two molecules which differ slightly from each other. The phenyl rings A (C1—C6) and B (C12—C17) are attached to the five-membered ring C (C7—C11) which is nearly planar with a r. m. s. deviation of 0.0505 Å from the least-squares plane. The values of the dihedral angles between A/B, A/C and B/C are 84.98 (11)°, 84.80 (12)° and 73.00 (12)°, respectively. The other molecule consists of phenyl rings D (C19—C24), E (C30—C35) and the five-membered ring F (C25—C29). Here the five membered ring deviates by 0.0491 Å from the least-squares plane. The dihedral angles between D/E, D/F and E/F are 86.74 (11)°, 81.20 (13)° and 71.36 (12)°, respectively.
The packing of the molecules is characterised by intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonding between the hydroxy donor groups and the C═O acceptor groups, leading to the formation of chains extending parallel to [100] (Table 1, Fig. 2). Weak C—H···π and intramolecular π···π interactions are also observed. The five-membered and phenyl rings attached to the hydroxy containing C-atom show π···π interactions with separation in the range 3.767 (3)-3.779 (3) Å, whereas the five membered and other phenyl ring show a separation in the range 4.069 (3)-4.080 (3) Å.
