In the pentacyclic triterpenoide skeleton of the title molecule, C27H43NO2 [systematic name: (3E,3aS,5aR,5bR,7aR,11R,11aR,11bR,13aR,13bR)-5a,5b,10,10,13b-pentamethylicosahydro-1H-11,7a-(epoxymethano)cyclopenta[a]chrysen-3-one oxime], the five-membered ring A has an envelope conformation, while the six-membered rings B-E adopt chair conformations. Rings A and B are cis-fused. The hydroximino group has an E configuration. Strong intermolecular O-H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into helical chains.
