description

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.
