3-[(2-Chloroethoxy)carbonyl]-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: The structure of the title compound, C 10 H 13 ClO 5 , was obtained by anhydride ring opening of norcantharidin with chloroethanol and pyridine as base. The title compound has triclinic ( P 1 ) symmetry, with individual molecules connected via their carboxylic acid groups into centrosymmetric dimers. Additional C—H...O interactions connect these dimers into slabs parallel to the ab plane (001). Steric crowding between the carboxylic acid and ester moieties leads to a strained C—C—C angle involving the ester carbon atom.
