The structure of the title compound, [Cr(C(10)H(12)O(2))(CO)(3)], is presented. The distorted piano-stool geometry features an off-center Cr(CO)(3) fragment which reduces contact with the dioxolane ring. The dioxolane ring, in twisted conformation, is syn-oriented towards the Cr(CO)(3) moiety.

In the title compound, C25H32N4O4, both piperazine rings adopt a chair conformation. One of dioxolane ring systems is essentially planar [dihedral angle = 0.9 (2)°] while the other adopts a slightly disordered envelope conformation, the mean plane of the dioxolane ring being twisted by 3.6 (2)° from that of the benzene ring. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 69.9 (5)°. No classica...

The title compound, C(12)H(18)O(6), is in the usual chair conformation with the two ester functions in a 1,3-trans orientation. With a value of 1.439 (2) Å, the pseudo-axial C-O bond of the 1,3-dioxolane ring is slightly longer than the corresponding equatorial C-O bond of 1.424 (3) Å. The O-C-O angle of the dioxolane ring is 106.25 (17)°.

The title compound, C(16)H(14)Cl(2)O(2), is a chiral mitotane derivative that contains a dioxolane ring and crystallizes from methanol as a racemic mixture. It was obtained in high yield from mitotane and ethyl-eneglycol in alkaline medium, followed by neutralization with sulfuric acid and extraction with ethyl acetate. The mol-ecular structure is stabilized by an intra-molecular C- H⋯ O hydrog...

In the title compound, C(15)H(20)O(4)S, a dioxolane ring is fused to the pyran ring of the sugar which carries a thio-phenyl substituent on the anomeric C atom. The dioxolane ring adopts an envelope conformation and the pyran ring system a distorted (4)C(1) chair. The structure is stabilized by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming centrosymmetric dimers that generate an R(2) (2)(10) ring motif. Additi...
