Cyclodecyl 4-nitrophenylacetate.
Cyclodecyl 4-nitrophenylacetate, C18H25NO4, has its ten-membered ring in the expected diamond-lattice boat-chair-boat [2323] conformation, with the substituent 4-nitrophenylacetoxy group in the BCB IIIe position. The ester unit has the expected Z conformation, with an O=C-O-C torsion angle of -0.3 (3) degrees, and the connection to the benzene ring is nearly perpendicular to the ester, with an O=C-C-C torsion angle of 85.5 (2) degrees. An intermolecular contact exists between the ester C atom and a nitro O atom, having a C...O distance of 2.909 (2) A.
