Asymmetric Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Bioactive Morpholine Derivative

摘要

A novel morpholine derivative was synthesized by Michael addition/internal nucleophilic substitution of 4-(L)-menthyloxy(1R,2S,5R)-butenolide with phenyl-glyalcohol under mild condition, and its structure was determined by X-ray diffraction. The target compound belongs to orthorhombic, space group P212121 with a = 5.7729(7), b = 11.5032(14), c = 25.161(3) (A), Mr = 319.35, Z = 4, V = 1670.8(4) (A)3, Dc = 1.270 g/cm3, μ(MoKα) = 0.094 mm-1, F(000) = 680, Flack = 0.01(2), R = 0.0398 and wR = 0.0914.
