The aromatic ring of the methoxyphenyl group is twisted by 42.49 (9)° with respect to the -pyrone ring. In the fused-ring, the dihedral angle between the phenylene and -pyrone rings is 3.08 (13)°.enInternational Union of CrystallographyTricarbonylSingle-crystal X-ray studyMethoxyphenolCrystal whiskersChromiumArticle
