Abstract

In the title compound, C30H34O8, molecular symmetry is coincident with crystallographic inversion symmetry. A three-dimensional network is generated containing both C-H...pi and C-H...n(O) interactions. A comparison of the geometry of this molecule and the structure of a number of 2,4,6-trimethoxy-substituted analogues is provided.
