    Abstract:
    6,6'-Dimethoxygossypolone (systematic name: 7,7'-dihydroxy-5,5'-diisopropyl-6,6'-dimethoxy-3,3'-dimethyl-1,1',4,4'-tetraoxo-2,2'-binaphthalene-8,8'-dicarbaldehyde), C(32)H(30)O(10), is a dimeric molecule formed by oxidation of 6,6'-dimethoxygossypol. When crystallized from acetone, 6,6'-dimethoxygossypolone has monoclinic (P2(1)/c) symmetry, and there are two molecules within the asymmetric unit. Of the four independent quinoid rings, three display flattened boat conformations and one displays a flattened chair/half-chair conformation. The angles between the planes of the two bridged naphthoquinone structures are fairly acute, with values of about 68 and 69°. The structure has several intramolecular O-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds and several weak intermolecular C-H...O hydrogen bonds, but no intermolecular O-H...O hydrogen bonds.
