Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

An x-ray structural investigation has been made of the sesquiterpene lactone mucrin, diffractometer: Cu Kα radiation, 942 reflections, direct method, R factor 0.083. The spatial structure of the molecule has been determined: the lactone ring is trans-linked with the germacrane ring, the epoxide group in the 1,10 position has the 1α,10β-orientation, and the hydroxy group in position 6 has the α-orientation.
