6-Hydroxy-5-[(2-hydroxy-4,4-dimethyl-6-oxocyclohex-1-enyl)(4-nitrophenyl)methyl]-1,3-dimethylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione

Abstract

In the title compound, C21H23N3O7, the pyrimidinedione ring adopts a screw-boat conformation, whereas the cyclohexenone ring adopts an envelope conformation, with the C atom bearing the methyl groups as the flap atom. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the pyrimidinedione and cyclohexenone rings is 58.78 (2)°. The pyrimidinedione and cyclohexenone rings form dihedral angles of 59.94 (3) and 54.73 (2)°, respectively, with the 4-nitrophenyl ring. Relatively strong intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds are observed. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming a chain along the c-axis direction.
