rings were constrained to idealised geometry (C-C 1.39
A). All hydrogen atoms were placed in calculated posi-
tions with displacement parameters set equal to 1.2 Ueq
of the parent carbon atoms for the methylene and phenyl
groups, and 1.5Ueqfor the methyl groups. Semi-empirical
absorption corrections [2 2 ] using i/’-scans were applied
to the data. All full-occupancy non-hydrogen atoms were
