2-{(1S,2S,4aR,8R,8aR)-8-Hydroxy-4a,8-dimethyl-1-[(2E)-2-methylbut-2-enoyloxy]perhydronaphthalen-2-yl}acrylic acid from Sclerorhachis platyrachis

The eudesmane-type terpenoid, C20H30O5, isolated from Sclerorhachis platyrachis, has a decalin skeleton whose six-membered rings adopt chair conformations. The two methyl substituents occupy axial positions, whereas the other three substituents occupy equatorial positions. The hydroxy group is an intramolecular hydrogen-bond donor to the single-bond ester O atom; adjacent molecules are linked through the carboxylic acid interacting with the hydroxyl group, forming a hydrogen-bonded chain running along the c axis.
