Abstract
The compound C30H50O (7β,8β-epoxy-9(87)-abeofriedelane),M r=376.33, orthorhombic, P212121,a=11.819(1) Å,b=14.381(2)Å,c=15.402(2)Å,Z=4,D c=1.083 gm cm−3,R=0.055, for 1643 reflections (withI>2σ) out of 1743 unique reflections. The three dimensional structure determination is done to characterize the conformation of this series of compounds which has good promise for drug and for rational understanding of the reaction mechanism in the olefin stereochemistry and the structural basis of synthesis of these natural products.
