In the title compound, C16H14O4, there is an intramolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The benzene rings are inclined to one another by 13.89 (9)°. The prop-2-en-1-one group is twisted slightly, the O=C—Car—Car (ar = aromatic) and C=C—C=O torsion angles being −10.4 (3) and −7.4 (3)°, respectively. In the crystal, molecules are linked by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [100]. These chains are further linked by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming corrugated sheets lying parallel to (010). There are C—H⋯π interactions present within the sheets.
In the title moleclue, C16H14O4, the dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 16.1 (3)°. The methoxy group is essentially coplanar with the benzene ring to which it is attached, with a C—O—C C torsion angle of 5.5 (9)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by O—H⋯O and bifurcated O—H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. The structure was refined as a two-component inversion twin.
In the title compound, C23H18O4, the methoxybenzene ring and attached C=C grouping are disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.823 (5):0.177 (5) ratio. The dihedral angles between the central benzene ring and the pendant phenyl and methoxybenzene ring (major orientation) are 51.21 (1) and 51.6 (1)°, respectively. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate R
