Cyclodecanol crystals, C10H20O, grown by slow sublimation, occur in the monoclinic system in space group P21/n. The carbocycle has the more stable diamond-lattice boat–chair–boat conformation and the hydroxy group is in the 2e position. Molecules are linked by hydrogen bonding between hydroxy groups, forming infinite chains along a, although the hydroxy hydrogen is apparently conformationally disordered, with O...O distances of 2.862 (4) and 2.893 (4) Å.
