2,2′-Bis(9-hydroxy-9-fluorenyl)biphenyl–ethyl acetate (1/1)

Abstract

In the title host–guest compound, C38H26O2·C4H8O2, the ethyl acetate mol­ecule (guest), which adopts a fully extended conformation, and the biphenyl derivative (host) are connected via O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [H⋯O = 1.90 (3) Å] into discrete assemblies. The hydro­carbon skeleton of the host mol­ecule deviates only slightly from C2 symmetry. The OH groups of the host are involved in intra­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonding [H⋯O = 1.83 (3) Å].
