Abstract

The title compound (C23H26O3, M r  = 350.44) has been synthesized under microwave irradiation. Its structure was characterized by IR, 1H NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The title crystal is in the monoclinic system, space group C with cell dimensions of a = 6.0500(12) Å, b = 19.693(4) Å, c = 16.386(3) Å, β = 97.85(3)º, V = 1,934.0(7) Å3, Z = 4, D c  = 1.204 g/cm3, λ = 0.71073 Å, μ = 0.08 mm−1, F (000) = 752, the final R = 0.065 and wR = 0.165 for 1,992 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I). In the molecular structure, the pyran ring is of boat conformation, and the two-six-membered rings fused with it adopt envelope conformations.

The title compound (C23H26O3, M r  = 350.44) has been synthesized under microwave irradiation. Its structure was characterized by IR, 1H NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The title crystal is in the monoclinic system, space group P21/C with cell dimensions of a = 6.0500(12) Å, b = 19.693(4) Å, c = 16.386(3) Å, β = 97.85(3)º, V = 1934.0(7) Å3, Z = 4, D c  = 1.204 g/cm3, λ = 0.71073 Å, μ = 0.08 mm–1, F (000)  = 752, the final R = 0.065 and wR = 0.165 for 1,992 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I). In the molecular structure, the pyran ring is of boat conformation, and the two six-membered rings fused with it adopt envelope conformations.
