The title compound, C19H18O5, is a diastereoisomer of crotocaudin, both being isolated from the plants of genus Croton. In isocrotocaudin, the furan moiety makes a dihedral angle with the adjacent lactone of 13.53 (17)°. The cyclohexyl ring of the diterpene moiety adopts a chair confirmation. The weak intermolecular C—H·O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into linear chains along the c axis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
