title: 9,9'-(Biphenyl-2,2'-di-yl)difluoren-9-ol 4-methyl-pyridine solvate.
abstract: The title compound, C(38)H(26)O(2)·C(6)H(7)N, crystallized as a host-guest complex from a solvent mixture of 4-methyl-pyridine and acetone. The dihedral angle between the rings in the biphenyl unit is 87.06 (3)°. The methyl-pyridine guest mol-ecules are linked to the host mol-ecules via O-H⋯ N hydrogen bonds, forming discrete pairs. The other OH group of the host forms an intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond.
