Abstract

The X-ray crystal structure of the title compound has been determined. The crystals are orthorhombic:Pcab, a=9.857(5),b=15.274(5),c=32.601(14) Å,V c =4908.4 Å3;Z=8;D x =1.279 Mg m−3; λ(MoKα)=0.71069 Å;μ=0.88 cm−1,F(000)=2016, temperature of measurement 294 K. The structure was solved by direct methods, and refined with 932 reflections to a finalR value of 0.071. The two six-membered rings show distorted boat conformations and the tetrahydrofuran ring exhibits a half-chair conformation. Mass spectra, IR spectrum, and1H and13C NMR spectra are also reported.
