(3S,3aS,6R,6aR)-2-Oxohexa-hydro-furo[3,2-b]furan-3,6-diyl dibenzoate.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C20H16O7, contains a cis-fused ?-lactone tetra-hydro-furan ring system functionalized with two benzo-yloxy groups. Both rings adopt an envelope conformation. The mol-ecule assumes an elongated shape and exibits non-crystallographic C 2 symmetry. The benzo-yloxy groups are almost planar [maximum deviations of 0.0491?(15) and 0.0336?(17)?Å for the O atoms] and their mean planes are inclined to one another by 16.51?(4)°. The crystal packing features weak C-H?O inter-actions. The aryl groups of adjacent mol-ecules are parallel shifted with face-to-face contacts and a shortest inter-molecular C?C distance of 3.482?(4)?Å.
