title: (5-n-Hexyl-2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-dioxan-2-yl)methanol.
abstract: In the title compound, C(12)H(24)O(4), the dioxane ring adopts a chair conformation; the n-hexyl chain, which occupies an equatorial position, has an extended zigzag conformation. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected by O-H⋯O hydrogen-bonds into a zigzag chain running along the b axis, giving rise to a herringbone pattern.
