10,16-Dioxatetracyclo[7.6.1.0^1,11.0^4,9]hexadecan-11-ol

The crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₄H₂₂O₃, consists of independent mol­ecules in each of which three six-membered rings and a five-membered ring are fused together. All the six-membered rings display chair conformations while the five-membered ring has an envelope conformation. The molecular dimensions are normal with mean bond distances: Csp³—Csp³ 1.523 (10) and Csp³—O 1.44 (2) Å. Pairs of molecules lying about inversion centers are linked by O—H...O hydrogen bonds [O...O 2.806 (3) Å].
