77. 2 = 0.1186, GOF = 0.985 for 190 parameters. Disorder in the 9-membered ring at C-11, C-12 and C-13 was modeled with isotropic atoms split over two sites. All other non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically. CCDC reference number 207/439. See http:// www.rsc.org/suppdata/p1/b0/b002565h/ for crystallographic files in .cif format.
