The title co-crystal, C30H34O5·C30H34O5, comprises a 1:1 mixture of two mostly superimposed mol­ecules with the same chemical formula that differ in the nature of the substituent (2-methyl­butanoyl or 3-methyl­butano­yl) bound at the exocyclic ketone. The lactone ring is close to planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.058 Å) and the phenyl ring is twisted out of this plane [dihedral angle = 60.08 (9)°]. The geranyl substituent is almost normal to benzene ring to which it is connected [C—C—Car—Car (ar = aromatic) torsion angle = −87.8 (2)°]. Intra­molecular O—H...O and O—H...π inter­actions are formed. In the crystal, supra­molecular chains are formed along the a axis owing to C—H...O contacts, with the lactone carbonyl atom accepting two such bonds.

In the title compound {systematic name: (1R,2R,5R,7R,10R,11R,14S,15R)-14-[(2S)-2-hy­droxy-6-methyl­hept-5-en-2-yl]-2,6,6,10,11-penta­methyl­tetra­cyclo­[8.7.0.02,7.011,15]hepta­decan-5-ol monohydrate}, C30H52O2·H2O, the three fused cyclo­hexane rings adopt chair conformations and the hy­droxy substituent of one of these occupies an axial position. The fused cyclo­pentane ring adopts an envelope conformation (with the flap atom being the C atom bearing the methyl group) and the 3-methyl­but-2-enyl portion of its substituent is disordered over three sets of sites in a 0.413 (7):0.250 (7):0.337 (7) ratio. The O atoms of both water mol­ecules occupy special positions of 2 site symmetry. In the crystal, Os—H...Ow and Ow—H...Os (s = steroid and w = water) hydrogen bonds link hy­droxy groups and water mol­ecules, forming a three-dimensional network. The crystal studied was found to be a non-merohedral twin with a 0.518 (1):0.482 (1) component ratio.
