In development of systheses of 2,5-diaryltetrahydrofuran lignans, the reaction of ethyl 3,4-methylenedioxycinnamate with the anion derived from ethyl mandelate was examined.It yielded an unexpected condensation product, C30H24O9, whose novel constitution was elucidated, and confirmed by an X-ray crystal structure determination.
