The crystal structure determination demonstrates unambiguously that the title compound, C19H20O6, has the Z configuration.The compound was synthesized starting from 2,3-bis(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-2-hydroxypropanoic acid, which was in turn obtained by an alkaline treatment of trans-1,3-bis(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-2,3-epoxy-1-propanone. 1H NMR data for the title compound and its methyl ester are reported.
