(4aS,5R,7R,8S,8aR)-8-(1,3-Dioxolan-2-yl)-7,8-dimethyl-5-(1-methylethenyl)perhydronaphthalen-2-one
Abstract
In the chiral title compound, C18H28O3, the two six-membered rings of the perhydronaphthalenone adopt a rigid chair–chair conformation and the five-membered dioxolanyl ring adopts an envelope conformation. The crystal structure is stabilized only by weak interactions.
