Andirobin from X. moluccensis

The title compound (systematic name: methyl 2-{(1R,2R)-2-[(1aS,4S,4aS,8aS)-4-(furan-3-yl)-4a-methyl-8-methyl­ene-2-oxoocta­hydro­oxireno[2,3-d]isochromen-7-yl]-2,6,6-trimethyl-5-oxocyclo­hex-3-en-1-yl}acetate), C₂₇H₃₂O₇, was isolated from X. moluccensis seeds from Thailand. The conformations of the six-membered rings are distorted half-chair, chair and half-chair for the isolated cyclo­hexane, fused cyclo­hexane and lactone rings, respectively. In addition, the lactone ring bears in an equatorial orientation an essentially planar furan ring (r.m.s. deviation = 0.004 Å), which forms an angle of 63.87 (13)° with the mean plane defined by the ten atoms of the two fused six-membered rings (r.m.s. deviation = 0.213 Å). The absolute configuration was fixed on the basis of literature data.
