Abstract
The title compound, C24H30O6, does not exhibit π–π interactions due to the steric effect of the bulky tert-butyl groups present in the molecule. The presence of these groups at the 2 and 2′ positions hinders the free motion of the benzene rings relative to each other, causing them to adopt an antiperiplanar arrangement. The benzene rings are twisted by just under 50.96 (17)° with respect to each other. The carbonyl groups within the molecule are directed in different directions, one towards the biphenyl group and the other away from it. The molecules are linked together by C=O⋯H—C hydrogen bonds.
