3,3′-Dibromo-5,5′-bis[(S)-l-menthyloxy]-4,4′-(hexane-1,6-diyldiimino)difuran-2(5H)-one

Abstract

The title compound, C34H54Br2N2O6, was obtained by the Michael addition–elimination reaction of (5S)-5-(l-menthyloxy)-3,4-dibromofuran-2(5H)-one with 1,6-hexanediamine in the presence of triethylamine. The crystal structure contains two chiral five-membered furanone rings, in twist and envelope conformations, and two six-membered cyclohexane rings in chair conformations.
