Structure and absolute configuration of (E)-(-)-2-cyclododecenyl camphanate.
C22H34O4, Mr = 362.51, monoclinic, P2(1), a = 7.371 (1), b = 10.571 (1), c = 13.538 (2) A, beta = 90.36 (1) degree, V = 1054.84 A3, Z = 2, Dx = 1.141 Mg m-3, lambda(Cu K alpha) = 1.5418 A, mu = 0.577 mm-1, F(000) = 396, T = 296 K, R = 0.057 for 1550 unique reflections with I greater than or equal to sigma(I). The crystal conformation of the 12-membered ring in the title compound and its absolute configuration (1R) have been determined. The ring adopts a conformation with a necessarily approximate twofold axis in the crystal but it appears to be highly flexible.
