Abstract
The title compound, C21H23BrO3 [systematic name: (3E,3aS,6Z,9R,9aS,9bS)-3-(2-bromobenzylidene)-9-hydroxy-6,9-dimethyl-3, 3a,4,5,7,8,9,9a-octahydroazuleno[4,5-b]furan-2(9bH)-one] was prepared by the reaction of 1-bromo-2-iodobenzene with micheliolide [systematic name: (3aS,R,9aS,9bS,Z)-9-hydroxy-6,9-dimethyl-3-methylene-3,3a,4,5,7,8,9, 9a-octahydroazuleno[4,5-b]furan-2(9bH)-one] under Heck reaction conditions. The title compound exhibits intramolecular O - H⋯O hydrogen bonding between the hydroxy group and the lactone ring O atom, forming a ring of graph-set motif S(6). The 2-bromophenyl group is trans to the lactone ring, indicating that this is the E isomer (geometry of the exocyclic C=C bond). The dihedral angle between the benzene ring of the 2-bromophenyl moiety and the mean plane of the lactone ring is 51.68 (7)°.
