9,9′-Bifluorene-9,9′-diol ethyl acetate solvate

Abstract

The 9,9′-bifluorene-9,9′-diol mol­ecules in the title compound, C26H18O2·C4H8O2, adopt a gauche conformation stabilized by intra­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between hydroxyl groups. There are two formula units per asymmetric unit. The mol­ecules are linked into one-dimensional chains by inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds; ethyl acetate mol­ecules are bound to these chains, also by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
