The structure of the estrone-related steroid, Equilenin, C18H18O2 (systematic name 3-hydroxy-13-methyl-11,12,13,14,15,16-hexahydrocyclopenta[a]phenanthren-17-one), has been determined at 100 K. The crystals are orthorhombic, P212121, and the absolute structure of the molecule in the crystal has been determined by resonant scattering [Flack parameter = −0.05 (4)]. The C atoms of the A and B rings are almost coplanar, with an r.m.s. deviation from planarity of 0.0104 Å. The C ring has a sofa conformation, while the D ring has an envelope conformation with the methine C atom as the flap. The keto O atom and the methyl group are translated 0.78 and 0.79 Å, respectively, from the equivalent positions on 17β-estrone. In the crystal, molecules are linked by O—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains parallel to the c-axis direction.

In the title compound, C21H30N2O, there are five fused rings. TheAandCrings adopt chair conformations, ringBadopts an 8β,9α-half-chair conformation and ringDadopts a 14α-envelope conformation. The pyrazole ring is planar. Intermolecular O—H...N hydrogen bonds [H...N = 1.88 (5) Å] help to stabilize the crystal structure. The absolute structure was deduced from those of the starting materials.

The title compound, C20H28O4[systematic name: (4bS,8aS,10S)-3,10-dihydroxy-2-isopropyl-4b,8,8-trimethyl-4b,5,6,7,8,8a,9,10-octahydrophenanthrene-1,4-dione], is an abietane-type diterpene, which was isolated fromTaxodium ascendens(B.). The compound crystallizes in the chiral space groupP21, but it was not possible to determine the absolute structure of the molecule in the crystal by resonant scattering. The molecular structure is stabilized by two intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds, enclosingS(5) andS(6) ring motifs. In the crystal, molecules are linked by O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the [010] direction. The crystal structure of the 10Rstereoisomer of the title compound, isolated from the roots ofPremna obtusifolia(Verbenaceae), has been reported. It crystallized in the chiral space groupP212121, and the absolute structure was determined as (4bS,8aS,10R), by resonant scattering using CuKα radiation [Razaket al.(2010).Acta Cryst.E66, o1566–o1567].

The title compounds, C20H16ClO2P, (I), and C18H21O2P, (II), were synthesizedviaan Arbuzov reaction between an α-bromoketone and isopropoxydiphenylphosphane. In the crystals of both compounds, molecules are linkedviabifurcated C—H...(O,O) hydrogen bonds, forming chains propagating along [100] for (I) and along [010] for (II). The chains are linkedviaC—H...π interactions, leading to the formation of sheets lying parallel to (010) for (I) and (001) for (II). The absolute structure of compound (II) was determined by resonant scattering [Flack parameter = 0.088 (14)].

In the title compound, C21H21F2N3O4S, the tetrahydrofuran ring adopts an envelope conformation with the β-C atom positioned at the flap. The triazole, difluorophenyl and tolyl rings of the various substituents on the tetrahydrofuran ring are inclined at 77.88 (12), 83.81 (10) and 81.00 (10)°, respectively, to the best-fit mean plane through the five atoms of the tetrahydrofuran ring. In the crystal, weak C—H...O and C—H...F hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a three-dimensional structure, with molecules stacked along thea-axis direction.

The title compound, C29H44O2, was formed by treatment of 11-oxooleanolic acid under strong alkaline conditions. The absolute structure of the chiral molecules could not be determined reliably from the diffraction data, but is known from other triterpenes. The asymmetric unit consists of two molecules, 1 and 2. In both molecules, ringsAandBshow chair conformations. The other rings show mixed forms between envelope and half-chair conformations with atoms in positions 8, 15 and 21 forming the flaps in ringsC,DandE, respectively. RingsDandEof molecule 2 are disordered over two orientations, with occupancies of 0.557 (4) and 0.443 (4), which differ in the direction of the flap in ringE. In the crystal, molecules 1, as well as the molecules 2, are linked by O—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains parallel to thebaxis.
