(1R*,11R*)-Bicyclo[9.4.1]hexadecane-12,16-dione.
The title compound, C(16)H(26)O(2), (I), prepared by oxidation of (1R*,11R*)-12-hydroxybicyclo[9.4.1]hexadecan-16-one using pyridinium dichromate, has a trans configuration of the two fused rings and represents an interesting precursor for the synthesis of macrocyclic structures.
