The title furan-ocoumarin, C14H12O4 [systematic name: 9-hy-droxy-2-(prop-1-en-2-yl)-2,3-di-hydro-7H-furo[3,2-g]chromen-7-one], crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit. The two mol-ecules differ essentially in the orientation of the propenyl group with respect to the mean plane of the furan-ocoumarin moiety; the O-C(H)-C=C torsion angle is 122.2 (7)° in mol-...

In the title mol-ecular salt [systematic name: triethylammonium 5-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-2,6-dioxo-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyrim-idin-4-olate], C(6)H(16)N(+)·C(10)H(5)N(4)O(7) (-), the cation and anion are linked by an N-H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the crystal, inversion-related barbiturate rings are centrosymmetrically connected through pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming R(2) (2)(8)R(2) (2)(8) ring motifs.

THE ASYMMETRIC UNIT OF THE TITLE COMPOUND [SYSTEMATIC NAME: 9,10-dimeth-oxy-7-methyl-6,7,7a,8-tetra-hydro-5H-benzo[g][1,3]benzodioxolo[6,5,4-de]quinoline], C(20)H(21)NO(4), contains two independent mol-ecules with very similar bond lengths and angles. The crystal packing exhibits voids of 131 Å(3).

The name Albuca caudata Jacq. has been widely misunderstood or even ignored since its description in 1791. After studying herbarium specimens and living populations in South Africa, plants fitting Jacquin´s concept of that species are found to be widely distributed in the Eastern Cape, mainly in the Albany centre of Endemism. Furthermore, some divergent specimens matching Baker´s concept of Alb...
