(7R,8S,8aS)-8-Hydroxy-7-phenylperhydroindolizin-3-one
Abstract
In the title compound, C14H17NO2, the six-membered ring of the indolizine system adopts a chair conformation. In the crystal, molecules form chains parallel to the b axis via intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds. The absolute molecular configuration was assigned from the synthesis.
