title: Xyloccensin e.
abstract: The title compound (also known as phragmalin triacetate), C(35)H(42)O(14), is a phragmalin-type limonoid extracted from X. rumphii. The mol-ecule consists of eight rings with the orthoacetate group bridged at positions 1, 8 and 9. The two five-carbocyclic rings (A(1) and A(2)) and the dioxolane ring (G) adopt a distorted envelope conformation. The 1,3-dioxane ring (E) exists in a chair conformation. The six-carbocyclic rings (B and C) exhibit a twisted-boat conformation. The lactone ring has a half-chair conformation and the furan ring is planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.002 Å). Rings A(1)/B, A(2)/B, B/C, C/D and C/G are all cis-fused. The two acet-oxy groups attached to ring B and the furan ring attached to the lactone ring are in equatorial positions. The porous crystal packing exhibits voids of 688 Å(3) and weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions. The absolute configuration was assigned on the basis of literature data.
