“…Singlecrystal X-ray analyses unequivocally established the 1 S configuration in dihydrochrysanolide (1 4) and its hydroperoxy-analogue (1 2). lsomorphous crystals of (1 2) and (1 4) belong to the monoclinic system, space group P 2 , , with a = 14.350 (6), b = 5.882 (3), c = 10.343(3) A, p = 107.64(2)", Z = 2, for (12), and a = 14.461 (6), b = 5.887 (3), c = 9.698(4) A, p = 107.44(2)", 2 = 2, for (14). Least-squares refinement of atomic parameters converged to R 0.040 for (1 2) and 0.033 for (1 4) over 1 484 and 1 300 reflections, respectively, measured by diffractometer.…”
