Abstract: | The title compound, ethyl 2‐hydroxy‐4‐oxo‐2‐phenylcyclohexanecarboxylate, C15H18O4, was obtained by a Michael–Aldol condensation and has the cyclohexanone in a chair conformation. The attached hydroxy, ethoxycarbonyl and phenyl groups are disposed in β‐axial, β‐equatorial and α‐equatorial configurations, respectively. An intermolecular hydrogen bond, with an O?O distance of 2.874 (2) Å, links the OH group and the ring carbonyl. Weak intermolecular C—H?O=C (ester and ketone), O—H?O=C (ketone) and C—H?OH hydrogen bonds exist. |
