Chromane (benzodihydropyran) is a heterocyclic chemical compound with the chemical formula C9H10O.[2] Chromane is a structural feature of more complex compounds including E vitamins (tocopherols and tocotrienols), Dianin's compound, and the pharmaceutical drugs troglitazone, ormeloxifene, and nebivolol. Such compounds are sometimes described as chromans.
