title: 5,7-Dimeth-oxy-2-phenyl-4H-chromen-4-one.
abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(17)H(14)O(4), contains two independent mol-ecules which differ in the relative orientations of the phenyl rings with repect to the essentially planar [maximum deviations of 0.029 (2) and 0.050 (2) Å in the two mol-ecules] chromene fused-ring system, forming dihedral angles of 10.3 (5) and 30.86 (5)° in the two mol-ecules. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak C-H⋯O and C--H⋯π inter-actions, and π-π stacking inter-actions.
