Abstract
TheN-(2-phenylethyl)amide ofα-(1′, 1′-ethylenedioxy)-ethyl-γ-hydroxybutyric acid (II) and theN-(p-methoxybenzyl)amide ofα-(1′, 1′-ethylenedioxy)-ethyl-γ-hydroxybutyric acid (III) have been synthesized and the crystal structure ofIII has been solved. CompoundIII, C16H23O5N, crystallizes in the monoclinic space groupP21/c witha=12.572(2),b=11.149(2),c=12.317(2) Å andβ=106.53(1)°. The structure was solved by direct methods, and refined by full-matrix least squares to giveR=0.040 (R w =0.047) for 2004 intensities. The dioxolane ring has a deformed half-chair conformation.
