The title compound, C14H24O2, was synthesized from ilicic acid, which was isolated from the aerial part of Inula Viscosa (L) Aiton [or Dittrichia Viscosa (L) Greuter]. The molecule contains two fused six-membered rings, which both display a chair conformation. In the crystal, molecules are linked into chains propagating along the b axis by intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

A solution containing the ilicic acid 1 g (3.96 mmol) and Et3N 0.82 ml (5.895 mmol) in dry THF (100 ml) was cooled at -10 °C. Ethyl chloroformate 0,56 ml (5.95 mm l) was added dropwise and the reaction mixture was stirred at this temperature for 1 h. A solution of NaN3 0.43 g (6.74 mmol) in H2O (10 ml) was then added in one portion. After 1.5 h at 0 °C, the resulting heterogeous mixture was filttered, the organic solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the aqueous phase was extracted tree time with ether (3 × 50 ml). The combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude acyl-azide was then dissolved in toluene (50 ml) and the resulting solution was refluxed for 1 h. Then a solution of hydrochloric acid at 10% was added to the reaction mixture which is remized at reflux for 2 h. After extraction, the organic phase is washed with water and brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under vacuum. The product was purified by
over silica gel (hexane/ethyl acetate 95/5). The title compound was recrystallized in dichloromethane.Except H2, all H atoms were fixed geometrically and treated as riding with C—H = 0.96 Å (methyl),0.97 Å (methylene), 0.98Å (methine) with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(methylene, methine and OH) or Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(methyl). In the absence of significant
the could not be reliably determined and thus 1167 Friedel pairs were merged and any references to the were removed.Data collection: CrysAlis PRO (Agilent, 2010); cell

Geometry. All s.u.'s (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u.'s is used for estimating s.u.'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 > 2σ(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. |

The ilicic acid is one of the main components of the extracts of the aerial parts Inula viscose. This natural acid is a major constituent of the dichloromethane extract of the Inula Viscosa (L) Aiton [or Dittrichia Viscosa (L) Greuter]. This plant is widespread in Mediterranean area and extends to the Atlantic cost of Morocco. It is a well known medicinal plant (Shtacher & Kasshman, 1970; Chiappini et al., 1982) and has some pharmacological activities (Azoulay et al., 1986). the Inula Viscosa (L) Aiton has been the subject of chemical investigation in terms of isolating sesquiterpene lactones (Bohlmann et al., 1977), sesquiterpene acids (Ceccherelli et al., 1988; Geissman et al.1967). The literature report one article on the transformation of the ilicic acid (Barrero et al., 2009). In order to prepare products with high added value, used in the industry pharmacological or cosmetic, we have studied the reactivity of this acid. Thus, with the reaction Curtius, we synthesized the title compound(1R, 2R, 6R, 9R)-9-acethyl-2,6-dimethylbicyclo [4.4.0]decan-2-ol) with à yield 50%. The structure of this new derivative of ilicic acid was determined by NMR spectral analysis of 1H, 13 C and mass spectroscopy and confirmed by its single-crystal X-ray structure. The molecule is built up from two fused six-membered rings. The molecular structure of (I),Fig.1, shows the two rings to adopt a perfect chair conformation as indicated by Cremer & Pople (1975) puckering parameters Q(T)= 0.554 (2)Å and spherical polar angle θ = 178.1 (2)° with ϕ = 36 (7)° for the first ring (C1,C2··· C6) and Q(T)= 0.597 (2)Å with a spherical polar angle θ = 178.71 (19)° and ϕ = 108 (5)° for the second ring (C1, C6···C10)(Cremer and Pople,1975). In the crystal structure, molecules are linked into chains (Fig. 2) running along the b axis by intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) involving the O1 and O2 atoms.
