(E)-1-[4-(Hex-yloxy)phen-yl]-3-(2-hy-droxy-phen-yl)prop-2-en-1-one

In the title compound, C(21)H(24)O(3), the enone moiety adopts an s-cis conformation and the dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 12.89 (6)°. The hex-yloxy tail adopts an extended conformation. In the crystal, inversion dimers are linked by pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and pairs of C-H⋯O inter-actions, forming two R(2) (2)(7) and one R(2) (2)(10) loops. The dimers are then arranged into sheets lying parallel to (201) and weak C-H⋯π inter-actions consolidate the packing.
