Formation of non-centrosymmetric dimers in (1S*,4aR*,8aR*)-decahydronaphthalene-1-carboxylic acid
The all-cis racemate of the title compound, C11H18O2, crystallizes in the chair-chair conformation that places the carboxyl group in an equatorial postion. The space group is centrosymmetric but the compound aggregates as dimers whose components are related by a C2 axis [O
O = 2.665 (3) Å and O—HO = 177°]. In the crystal structure, one C—HO=C close contact is found.

The title racemic compound, C14H20O2, a tricylic diketone isolated from enamine reactions of cyclohexanone with methyl vinyl ketone, is shown to have an all-chair conformation and a cis stereochemical relationship for its methine H atoms.
organic compounds
The title compound, C14H16O, is largely flat and rigid, with near coplanarity between the ketone and the aromatic ring. The packing includes two intermolecular C—HO=C close contacts.
