Description
Summary:The title compound, a natural b,d-seco-limonoid, C27H34O8·H2O, and known as Swietenolide monohydrate, has been isolated from S. macrophylla King. In the molecular structure, the four fused six-membered rings adopt twist-boat (ring A), approximate chair (ring B), envelope (ring C) and half-chair (ring D) conformations. The attached furan ring is essentially planar. O—H...O hydrogen bonds and weak C—H...O interactions connect the molecules into a two-dimensional network parallel to the (100) plane. C—H...π interactions are also observed.
