6‐Deoxy­jacareubin

The natural compound 5,10‐di­hydroxy‐2,2‐di­methylpyrano­[3,2‐b]­xanthen‐6(2H)‐one (6‐deoxy­jacareubin), C₁₈H₁₄O₅, was isolated from leaves of Vismia latifolia (Guttiferae family). The compound has four six‐membered rings. The mol­ecule has two planar benzeno­id and one planar pyran­oid ring, plus a pyran­oid ring in a distorted chair conformation. The crystal is stabilized by one intra‐ and one intermolecular hydrogen bond.
