Abstract: The title compound, C₂₅H₃₅O₃PS, is a chiral phosphinate containing five stereogenic centers, one at the P atom, one at the S atom and three in the (-)-menthyl group. The crystal packing reveals that molecules are linked into chains along the a axis by intermolecular C-HO hydrogen-bonding interactions.
