title: (1R*,21S*,22R*,24S*)-Methyl ethyl 2-[23-hy-droxy-22,24-diphenyl-8,11,14-trioxa-25-aza-tetra-cyclo-[19.3.1.0(2,7).0(15,20)]penta-cosa-2,4,6,15(20),16,18-hexaen-25-yl]but-2-enedioate.
abstract: The title compound, C40H41NO8, is a product of the reduction of the cyclic carbonyl group of the γ-piperidone subunit of the aza-14-crown-4 ether with subsequent re-esterification of its dimethyl butenoate substituent into a monoethyl monomethyl group. The aza-crown macrocycle exhibits a bowl conformation with a dihedral angle of 70.82 (5)° between the benzene rings fused to it. The piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation and the methyl ethyl ethyl-enedi-carboxyl-ate fragment has a cis conformation, with a dihedral angle of 66.51 (7)° between the two carboxyl-ate groups. The ethyl group is disordered over two sites with occupancies of 0.70 (1):0.30 (1). In the crystal, mol-ecules form inversion dimers, via pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, that stack along the a axis.
