(20S)-3β-Hydroxyholosta-7,9-diene

The crystal and molecular structures of the title triterpenoid have been determined. There are three molecules of this triterpenoid (C₃₀H₄₆O₃), one molecule of acetone (C₃H₆O) and a molecule of water (H₂O) in the asymmetric unit, i.e. formula C₃₀H₄₆O₃.⅓C₃H₆O.⅓H₂O. The molecules of the triterpenoid have different conformations of both the side chains and the γ-lactone rings.
