Primary Institution: Universidad de Salamanca

Conclusion

The crystal structure determination confirms the configuration of the chiral centres as 3S,4R.

Supporting Evidence

  • The crystal structure shows intermolecular C—H⋯O interactions linking the molecules into infinite zigzag chains.
  • The study provides crystallographic data for a compound that has been increasingly used in literature for its biological relevance.

Takeaway

The study describes a new compound that can be used in making medicines, and it shows how the molecules are arranged in a crystal.

Methodology

The title N-oxide was obtained by intramolecular nucleophilic displacement using a one-pot procedure.
