title: (6R)-2-tert-Butyl-6-[(4R,5S)-3-isopropyl-4-methyl-5-phenyl-oxazolidin-2-yl]phenol.
abstract: In the title compound, C(23)H(31)NO(2), the lone pair on the nitro-gen atom is oriented to facilitate intra-molecular hydrogen bonding with the hydr-oxy group residing on the phenyl substituent. The five-membered ring adopts an envelope confornmation with the O atom at the flap. The absolute stereochemistry was verified by measurement of optical activity using a digital polarimeter.
