| Abstract: | The crystal and molecular structure of augustamine (1), C17H19NO4 an amaryllidaceae alkaloid of the tazettine group has been determined by direct methods from single crystal x-ray diffractometer data and refined by full-matrix least squares. The alkaloid (1) crystallizes in the space group P212121, with cell parameters: a = 7.833(8) b = 11.08(2) å, c = 16.69(6) Å, Z = 4, Dc = 1.381 g/cm–3, R = 7.6% for 1115 observed reflections. The molecule, having a hexacyclic ring system, is very rigid with the ring B in a chair conformation. Molecular mechanics calculations have been made using MM3(2000) force field. |
