title: 2,4-Bis[1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-methylethyl]phenol: a three-dimensional framework built from O-H...O hydrogen bonds.
abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, C(24)H(26)O(3), (I), there are three different O-H...O hydrogen bonds, which individually form chains of C(10), C(12) and C(16) types. The combined effect of all these hydrogen bonds is the formation of a three-dimensional network, which is additionally stabilized by a single intermolecular C-H...pi interaction. The significance of this study lies in the comparison drawn between the molecular structure of (I) and those of several of its analogues, which shows a close similarity in the almost perpendicular orientation of the benzene rings.
