Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 4,4'-di-meth-oxy-biphenyl-3,3',5,5'-tetra-carb-oxy-lic acid dihydrate.

ABSTRACT: In the crystal of the title compound, C₁₈H₁₄O₁₀·2H₂O, the arene rings of the biphenyl moiety are tilted at an angle of 24.3 (1)°, while the planes passing through the carboxyl groups are rotated at angles of 8.6 (1) and 7.7 (1)° out of the plane of the benzene ring to which they are attached. The crystal structure is essentially stabilized by O-H⋯O bonds. Here, the carboxyl groups of neighbouring host mol-ecules are connected by cyclic R ₂ ²(8) synthons, leading to the formation of a three-dimensional network. The water mol-ecules in turn form helical supra-molecular strands running in the direction of the crystallographic c-axis (chain-like water clusters). The second H atom of each water mol-ecule provides a
