The stereochemistries of the title compounds, both C(16)H(24)Cl(2)O, have been established by X-ray diffraction. In both structures, the seven-membered ring adopts the same conformation, whereas the six-membered ring shows an envelope conformation in the epoxydodecane structure and a boat conformation in the dodecan-9-one structure.

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.
