Crystal structure of (±)-(4RS,5RS,7SR)-4-[(1RS,2RS,3RS,6RS)-3-benzoyloxy-2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-6-methoxymethoxy-2-methylcyclohexyl]-8,10,10-trimethyl-2-oxo-1,3-dioxaspiro[4.5]dec-8-en-7-yl benzoate benzene monosolvate

Abstract

In the title compound, C36H44O10·C6H6, the dioxolane ring adopts an envelope conformation with the C atom bonded to the H atom as the flap, while the cyclohexene and cyclohexane rings are in half-chair and chair conformations, respectively. In the crystal, a pair of O—H...O hydrogen bonds with anR22(26) graph-set motif connect the benzoate molecules into an inversion dimer. The dimers are linked by a weak C—H...O interaction into a tape structure along [01-1]. The benzene molecule links the tapes through C—H...O and C—H...π interactions, forming a sheet parallel to (100).
