Racemic 4-(4-tert-butyl-phen-yl)-2,6-dimethyl-cyclo-hex-3-enecarboxylic acid.


ABSTRACT: The chirality of the title compound, C(19)H(26)O(2), is solely generated by the presence of the double bond in the cyclo-hexene ring. This compound was synthesized to study the inter-action of the two enanti-omers in the solid state. The resultant racemate is made up of carboxylic acid RS dimers. Inter-molecular O-H?O hydrogen bonds produce centrosymmetric R(2) (2)(8) rings which dimerize the two chiral enanti-omers through their carboxyl groups.
