Abstract
The crystal structure of the yellow pigment 2,5-dihydroxybenzo[de]benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-a]isoquinolin-7-one (C18H10N2O3) was determined from powder data. The crystal structure was solved by minimizing the intermolecular energy starting from random packings. Subsequently, the structure was refined by rigid-body Rietveld analysis, using synchrotron powder data. The refinement included several intramolecular degrees of freedom. The compound crystallizes inPna21,Z\,=\,4, with lattice parametersa\,=\,13.2759 (3),b\,=\,20.9561 (5),c\,=\,4.7798 (1) Å, andV\,=\,1329.79 (5) Å3. The crystal consists of planar molecules, connected by hydrogen bonds of the types O–H...OH and O–H...N, which form a three-dimensional hydrogen-bond network.
