The crystal structure of the title compound (C23H32O4) has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 with cell parameters: a = 10.86(1), b = 11.95(2), c = 15.65(5) Å and Z = 4. The structure has been refined to an R-value of 0.045 for 1610 observed reflections. Ring A exists in sofa conformation, Ring B adopts a distorted chair conformation while as Ring C assumes a chair conformation. The five membered ring D adopts a half-chair conformation. The crystal structure is stabilized by intra- and intermolecular C-H…O interactions.
