S. N. Rao, S. Vasanth and V. Pattabhi

Abstract: The crystal structure of glochidone [or lup-1,20(29)-dien-3-one], C₃₀H₄₆O, from the plant Agyneia bacciformis A. Juss has been determined. This natural product has anti-inflammatory activity. The rings A/B, B/C, C/D and D/E are trans fused. The molecules in the crystal structure are stabilized by C-HO short contacts and van der Waals forces.
