N2  - The crystal structure of the asymmetric 1,3-diol 1,1-diphenylbutane-1,3-diol has been determined and refined to a residual R of 0.039 for 795 observed reflections. Crystals are orthorhombic, space group P212121, with four molecules in a cell of dimensions a 9.625(4), b 16.002(3), c 8.834(3) &#506;. The compound is unique among the known crystallographically characterized open-chain 1,3-diols in having only intramolecular hydrogen bonding involving the hydroxy groups [O-- -O 2.602(5) &#506;].
