RESUMO
The title compound, 2,9-bis(3-nitrophenyl)-1-azatricyclo[3.3.1.1(3,7)]decan-4-one, C21H19N3O5, has a tricyclic structure. The torsion angles may be used to describe the relationship of the carbonyl group to the adjacent faces, whereby it is seen that the angles on the face of the arylpiperidinone side [122.0 (3) and -122.0 (3) degrees ] are greater than those on the cyclohexanone side [-119.8 (4) and 119.9 (4) degrees ]. Although these differences may explain a facial selectivity during nucleophilic addition to the carbonyl group, the presence of the aryl rings is probably also important.
RESUMO
The title compound, ethyl 2-hydroxy-4-oxo-2-phenylcyclohexanecarboxylate, C(15)H(18)O(4), was obtained by a Michael-Aldol condensation and has the cyclohexanone in a chair conformation. The attached hydroxy, ethoxycarbonyl and phenyl groups are disposed in beta-axial, beta-equatorial and alpha-equatorial configurations, respectively. An intermolecular hydrogen bond, with an O.O distance of 2.874 (2) A, links the OH group and the ring carbonyl. Weak intermolecular C-H.O=C (ester and ketone), O-H.O=C (ketone) and C-H.OH hydrogen bonds exist.
