Crystal structure of an ep-oxy-sterol: 9?,11?-ep-oxy-5?-cholest-7-ene-3?,5,6?-triol 3,6-di-acetate.


ABSTRACT: The title compound, C31H48O6, is a polyoxygenated ep-oxy steroid obtained by a multi-step synthesis involving oxidation of 7-de-hydro-cholesterol. It crystallizes in the P212121 space group; however, the absolute structure of the molecule in the crystal could not be determined by resonant scattering. The configuration at the C5 and C6 positions is in both cases of the ?-type, as is that of the C atoms of the ep-oxy ring. Mol-ecules in the crystal form chains parallel to the b axis by hydrogen bonding between O-H donors and carbonyl O-atom acceptors. Some atoms of the alkyl chain are disordered over two orientations, with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.511?(10):0.489?(10).
