The title compound, C33H46O7, is an unusual oxydation product of the therapeutic agent glycyrrhetinic acid that has, in comparison to the latter, a distinctly altered triterpene structure with one five- and four six-membered carbocycles complemented by a γ-lactone ring with a spiro-junction and a ring double bond. The junction between the five-membered ring C, a cyclo­penta­none ring, and the six-membered ring D, previously in question, was found to be cis, confirming earlier structure assignments based solely on chemical transformations. In the solid state, the compound exhibits five intra- and four inter­molecular C—H⋯O inter­actions with H⋯O distances less than or equal to 2.70 Å and C—H⋯O greater than 100°.
