The title compound, C20H26O4, crystallized in the centrosymmetric space gro
up P2(1)/c with a single molecule as the asymmetric unit. The two hydroxyl-
H atoms are ordered and are involved in hydrogen bonds whose O-D...O-A dist
ances are 2.807(2) and 2.805(2)Angstrom; one of these bonds is intramolecul
ar. The intramolecular dihedral angle between the ring planes (twist angle)
is 87.3 (1)degrees.
