In the title compound (systematic name 1-hydroxy-1,2-dihydroobacunoic acid 3,4-lactone monohydrate), C26H32O8·H2O, the dihedral angles between the planes of the ester groups and the furan plane are 43.06 (12) and 56.06 (7)°, while that between the furan plane and the keto group is 58.50 (9)°. The A/B, B/C and C/D ring junctions are all trans-fused. Intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the hydroxy and carbonyl groups and the water molecule give rise to a three-dimensional 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.
