Abstract
The absolute configuration of the title compound, alternatively called (+)- (4,5-dihydro-2,5-diphenyloxazol-4-yl)methanol, C16H15NO2, has been confirme d as 4S,5S. The hydroxymethyl group and phenyl ring at the asymmetric C ato ms exhibit beta and alpha orientations, respectively. The exocyclic C-C bon ds at the asymmetric C atoms are mutually anticlinal (- ac). The hydroxyl g roup and the N atom of the oxazoline ring are involved in an intermolecular hydrogen bond leading to chains of molecules.
