4,5,7,8,17-Penta-hydr-oxy-14,18-dimethyl-6-methyl-ene-3,10-dioxapenta-cyclo-[9.8.0.0.0.0]nona-dec-14-ene-9,16-dione methanol solvate dihydrate.

ABSTRACT: The title quassinoid compound, C(20)H(24)O(9)·CH(3)OH·2H(2)O, is a natural eurycomanone isolated from the roots of Eurycoma longifolia. The mol-ecules contain a fused five-ring system, with one tetra-hydro-furan ring adopting an envelope conformation, one tetra-hydro-pyran-2-one ring in a screw boat conformation, one cyclo-hexenone ring in a half-chair conformation and two cyclo-hexane rings in chair conformations. Intra-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions generate S(5) ring motifs and an O-H⋯O inter-action generates an S(7) ring motif. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via inter-molecular O-H⋯O inter-actions along the b axis and further stacked along a axis. The absolute configuration of the title compound was inferred from previously solved structures of its analogues.
