In the title compound, C10H15NO3, the central six-membered ring of the indolizine system adopts a chair conformation, while the oxopyrrolidine and hydrofuran rings attached to the indolizine ring system have envelope conformations. In the crystal, the molecules form chains parallel to the b axis via intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The was assigned from the synthesis.

The title compound (3aR,8aS,9S,9aR)-9-hydroxyoctahydrofuro[3,2-f]indolizin- 6(4H)-one was prepared according literature procedures of Šafář et al. (2008).
Atom H2 was refined isotropically. All other H atoms were positioned geometrically and treated as riding atoms, with C—H distances in the range 0.97 - 0.98Å and Uiso set at 1.2Ueq of the parent atom. The
could not be reliably determined for this compound using Mo radiation, and has been assigned according to the synthesis; Friedel pairs have been merged.Data collection: CrysAlis CCD (Oxford Diffraction, 2006); cell

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Indolizines are electron-rich heterocycles with very low oxidation potential. Functionalized indolizines are common substructures found in biologically important natural products and synthetic pharmaceuticals. Due to the various biological functions associated with this skeleton, it has been frequently employed as a key scaffold in the drug industry (Gundersen et al., 2007). The indolizine derivatives show antibacterial, antiviral, antiherpes, anticancer, antifungal, antihelmintic and insecticidal activity (Sundaram et al., 2007). Indolizine alkaloids are excellent inhibitors of biologically important pathways. These include the binding and processing of glycoproteins, potent glycosidase inhibitory activities (Pyne, 2005), activity against AIDS virus HIV and some carcinogenic cells (Mikael, 1999). Castanospermine (Karanjule et al., 2006), swainsonine (Martin et al., 2005) and lentiginosine (Chaudhari et al., 2006) have shown respective glycosidase and mannosidase inhibitory activities, respectively. While an impressive number of total syntheses of polyhydroxylated indolizines and their non-natural analogues in chiral or racemic forms have been reported, the monohydroxylated indolizines have attracted far less attention.
Based on these facts and in contitutation of our interest in developing simple and efficient route for the synthesis of novel monohydroxylated indolizine derivatives, we report here the synthesis, molecular and crystal structure of the title compound, (I). The absolute configuration was established by synthesis and is depicted in the scheme and figure. The expected stereochemistry of atoms C5, C6, C7 and C10 was confirmed as S, S, R and R, respectively (Fig. 1). The central six-membered ring is not planar and adopts a chair conformation (Cremer & Pople, 1975). A calculation of least-squares planes shows that this ring is puckered in such a manner that the four atoms C5, C6, C10 and C11 are coplanar to within 0.019 (2) Å, while atoms N1 and C7 are displaced from this plane on opposite sides, with out-of-plane displacements of -0.591 (2) and 0.565 (1) Å, respectively. The oxopyrrolidine and hydrofuran rings are each distorted towards an envelope conformation, with atoms C4 and C10 as the flaps. The displacements of atoms C4 and C10 from the mean planes of the remaining four atoms are 0.316 (2) and 0.642 (2) Å, respectively. The central six-membered N-ring is approximately perpendicular to the hydrofuran ring (dihedral angle between plane defined by atoms C5, C6, C10 and C11 and plane defined by atoms C7, O3, C8 and C9) is 82.2 (1)°. As was mentioned in previous papers (Vrábel et al., 2004; Švorc et al., 2009), the N1—C5 and N1—C11 bonds are approximately equivalent and both are much longer than the N1—C2 bond. Atom N1 is sp2-hybridized, as evidenced by the sum of the valence angles around it (357.3 (2)°). These data are consistent with conjugation of the lone-pair electrons on N1 with the adjacent carbonyl, similar to what is observed for amides. Intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules of (I) into extended chains, which run parallel to the b axis (Fig. 2) and help to stabilize the crystal structure of the compound. Atom O2 participates as acceptor and atom O3 as donator in these intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Bond lengths and angles in the indolizine ring system are in good agreement with values from the literature (Camus et al., 2003).
