Crystal structure and absolute configuration of (4S,5R,6S)-4,5,6-trihydroxy-3-methylcyclohex-2-enone (gabosine H)
2017
The absolute configuration of the title compound, determined as 4S,5R,6S on the basis of the synthetic pathway, was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecule is formed by a substituted six-membered cyclohexene ring adopting an envelope conformation and substituted by carbonyl, methyl and hydroxyl groups. The supramolecular structure is mainly built by a combination of O—H⋯O and weaker C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
Crystal structure and absolute configuration of (3aR,3′aR,7aS,7′aS)-2,2,2′,2′-tetramethyl-3a,6,7,7a,3′a,6′,7′,7′a-octahydro-4,4′-bi[1,3-benzodioxolyl…

The absolute configuration,i.e.(3aR,3′aR,7aS,7′aS), of the title compound, C18H26O4, synthesizedviaa palladium-catalyzed homocoupling reaction, was determined on the basis of the synthetic pathway and was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The homocoupled molecule is formed by two chemically identical moieties built up from two five- and six-membered fused rings. The supramolecular assembly is controlled mainly by C—H...O interactions that lead to the formation of hydrogen-bonded chains of molecules along the [001] direction, while weak dipolar interactions and van der Waals forces hold the chains together in the crystal structure.
