Abstract: | Summary An x-ray structural investigation of the alkaloid (+)-cocculine in the form of the hydrobromide has been performed. The bond lengths and valence angles are the usual ones. The conformations of the rings are: A — envelope4E; B — half-chair9T5; C — half-chair10H5. The absolute configuration 3R,5S has been established.Institute of Heteroorganic Compounds, Academy of Sciences of the USSR.
