Crystal Structures of rac-Methyl- (3R*, 3aS*, 4R*, 7R*, 7aR*)-7-Acetoxymethyl)-3-benzyl-4,5-dimethyl-1-oxo-3a,4,7,7a-tetrahydroisoindoline-7a-carboxylate

The X-ray structures of the compounds 4 and 2 have been determined by direct methods and refined by least squares techniques. Crystals of C₂₂H₂₇NO₅ and C₂₇H₂₇NO₅ are triclinic, space groups Pī with lattice parameters a = 13.652 (5) Å, b = 10.926 (3) Å, c = 7.755 (2) Å, a = 111.554 (4) Å, β = 85.541 (3) Å, γ = 104.813 (4) Å, and a = 15.394 (4) Å, b = 9.674 (3) Å, c = 8.522 (3) Å, a = 111.04 (4) Å, ß = 93.65 (4) Å, γ = 95.01 (4) Å, respectively.
