organic compounds
In the title compound, C16H17NO4, the five-membered lactone ring is trans-fused to the cyclohexene ring. The cyclohexene ring exhibits a half-chair conformation with the benzamido group in an axial position. The γ-butyrolactone adopts an envelope conformation with the hydroxymethyl substituent in a pseudo-equatorial position. The crystal structure is stabilized by two intermolecular hydrogen bonds (O—HO and N—HO) involving the benzamido and hydroxy groups.
