1′-Ethylsulfanyl-1,1′-bicyclohexyl-2-one

Abstract

There are two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit of the title cyclohexanone derivative, C14H24OS, in which both cyclohexane rings exhibit chair conformations. They are also equatorial to each other, which permits the ethanethiol substituent to be in a syn conformation with the α-H atom of the parent attached cyclohexanone.
