Crystal structure of (E)-4,4′-(but-2-ene-1,4-diyl)bis(2-methoxyphenol)

The title compound, C18H20O4, was synthesized via the ruthenium-catalyzed alkene methathesis dimerization of eugenol. The whole molecule is generated by inversion symmetry; the center of inversion being located at the mid-point of the trans C=C bond. The phenol ring is inclined to the mean plane of...
