M. Bolte et al., Redetermination of 3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-4a-hydroxy-9(ortho-methoxyphenyl)-2,3,4,4a,5,6,7,8,9,9a-deca-hydro-1H-xanthene-1,8-dione at 173 K, ACT CRYST E, 57, 2001, pp. o172-o173
The title compound, C24H30O5, has been redetermined at 173 K. In contrast t
o the structure determination of Tu et al. [Chin. J. Struct. Chem. (Jiegou
Huaxue) (1998), 17, 409-412] at room temperature, we were able to locate al
l H atoms. There is an intermolecular hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl gr
oup and the carbonyl O atom of the cyclohexenone ring.
