Rac-2-Hydroxy-2,8-Dimethyl-4-Morpholinoethyl-1-Thia-4-Azaspiro[4.5]decan-3-One

Abstract

The title compound, C16H28N2O3S, is dimerized by inversion symmetry-related inter-molecular O - H⋯N hydrogen bonding, forming an R 2 2(16) motif. The dimers are also linked through inter-molecular C - H⋯O hydrogen bonding. The compound is chiral with a stereogenic centre located in the thia-zole ring, but in the crystal structure it forms a racemate. The thia-zole ring has an envelope conformation, while the cyclo-hexane and morpholine rings adopt chair conformations.
